Saqibul, who also bowled a full 10-over spell, told Sky Sports 2: 'In the field I just tried to bowl line and length and I knew I needed to do that. 'Batting was tough at first but I knew if we batted 50 overs we'd be there (at their target of 192). 'I was just trying to play naturally and I enjoyed batting on that pitch.' Iqbal added: 'I just tried to play my natural game and when I was selected for the national team my aim was to play my own game. 'I like to play shots and play lots of them. It was easier in the second half of the game for batting and I enjoyed it.'

I guess it was nice to finish off with a catch behind with Gilly. McGrath on Gilchrist catching Arnold to give him his last ODI wicket. He is the tournament's leading wicket-taker with a record haul of 25 wickets and the most successful World Cup bowler of all-time. It was really pleasing to do it on an important day. I've been getting a lot of starts but hadn't converted. Adam Gilchrist who smashed a final record 149 off 104 balls to set up the victory. It was simply a brilliant innings from Gilchrist, unfortunately I was the opposition captain watching it. Sri Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene about Adam Gilchrist's 149 off just 104 balls. My learned commentary is, my commentary is congratulations to Ricky and the boys, but to Glenn McGrath, that lanky bloke from Narromine, thanks for a wonderful contribution to Australian cricket.
