LIVE India vs Sri Lanka Final Asia Cup 2023: Sri Lanka Coach Chris Silverwood After Disappointing Show

"It has been below par, the get bowled out the way we did is disappointing. Today we came up against a very high class bowling attack, Siraj and Bumrah were exceptional, they bowl at a good pace as well. But at the same time, this is our lacking as well. We came in here with some younger bowlers, we’ve seen some of them shine. Sadeera and Pathirana have really come through. I think we need to sleep on this and make some decisions tomorrow, best to assess this in the morning and discuss with the other coaching staff as well."

LIVE India vs Sri Lanka Final Asia Cup 2023: Hardik Pandya After Winning Asia Cup

"As a group, we spoke about finishing games and throwing punches in the pressure situation. It was a good toss to lose, we wanted to bat as well. I think our new bowlers, especially Siraj bowled really well. He got it swinging and created a lot of chances. Nowadays in ODI cricket, the new ball has been swinging and we have been speaking about getting the most. The first few overs, the ball didn’t even hit the bat."

LIVE India vs Sri Lanka Final Asia Cup 2023: Shardul Thakur On Winning Title

"It (the match) got over within the blink of an eye. Couldn't get better than this. Bumrah started well and what a spell it was from Siraj. It was a brilliant effort from his side. Hardik got those last three wickets. It was a clinical performance by the bowlers. Gill and Ishan got done with the chase. I think it was more of a combination how we are going to play in the World Cup. KL (Rahul) scoring that ton against Pakistan, what a comeback for him. We feel that we are a settled side, everyone is ready to showcase their skills. Whenever I'll play I'll try to contribute for the team."

India Win Asia Cup 2023

Former India cricketer Yuvraj Singh expressed his happiness on the performance of Rohit Sharma's Team India after the Men in Blue lifted the Asia Cup 2023 title.

The monkey  is finally off our back!

23 years ago team India  was all out for only 54 against #SriLanka in Sharjah.

Congratulations boys on a dominating performance in the #AsiaCup

Looking forward to this form being carried thru to the #WorldCup

LIVE India vs Sri Lanka Final Asia Cup 2023: KL Rahul On Sensational Comeback

'I was a bit worried a couple of weeks ago, but got to play some good games against competitive teams. Scored runs and was good with the gloves, a few boxes ticked for me. Hopefully this continues for the next couple of months. I have been playing in Bangalore since four months, beautiful wickets for batting there. Happy that I got to spend time in the middle, it was a good challenge. Playing spin will be important in the middle overs in the World Cup, looking forward to that challenge. It's good to play games where bowlers get help. Siraj was phenomenal. He did the job for us, and everyone else chipped in as well. We'll take this win.'

LIVE India vs Sri Lanka Final Asia Cup 2023: Ishan Kishan After Opening The Batting Again

'The bowlers were on point today. I would like to give credit to bowlers. Siraj and Bumrah. It's not easy to bat in the second innings. We were prepared for any challenge, we spoke about it in the team meetings. I always love to open, the total wasn't much, so it was a big yes (when asked to open) from my side. Can't do much when you have only 50 runs on the board. But thanks to the skipper. We know our roles, we know how to prepare for the World Cup. We are playing against Australia, and I will be batting in the middle-order.'
