Sourav Ganguly "The problem is not with the ability, but with the mind. We have the ability to win an away Test series, but I don't think we have the mindset. That's the main reason why we haven't done well abroad. We've never done well in crunch matches. We've to produce something extra in these games and we've never been able to do it. Our performances in the one-day finals have also proved that, so we need to work on that. "The foreign conditions are not really the key. West Indies played better cricket than us in Barbados and here and won the series. We just didn't bat well on a good wicket in Barbados. The ball moved for 10-15 overs on the first morning. Had we not lost early wickets during that period we would have done better.

"It was the same here. We won the toss and bowled badly on the first morning and allowed their openers to raise a big stand. I think Wavell Hinds and Chris Gayle took the game away from us on the first day. We then didn't bat well in the first innings. They played better overall cricket than us."

Carl Hooper "We can't afford to be complacent and it's very important to build on this. When I came back from Sharjah, I said we're making progress. But they said how could you be making progress when you have lost 3-0 in Sri Lanka and 2-0 against Pakistan. I'd still say we're making progress, but slowly. We're slowly turning the corner. There's still a lot of hard work to do. Maybe one day we can compete with Australia and say we've turned the corner and are on the way up."

"We've been trying to play good cricket for a while. We've been trying to put in good bowling and batting performances. Each series is important whether at home or abroad. It's very important to get a result.

"But the Indians must consider themselves unfortunate not to have Kumble. He could have played a key role in Antigua and here where the bounce was a bit inconsistent."

John Wright "To be honest, we can't afford to lose so many wickets coming into the final day while trying to win or save the game or take advantage of the weather conditions. When you needed that many runs, you needed a couple of hundreds. The earlier the better and then go from there. What was disappointing about this particular match was that it was the decider and everyone was aware of that.

"To win a series away from home, you got to understand it isn't going to be easy. The conditions may not be suited to you or you may not be used to them. Not winning here was disappointing for us and for the Indian public who deserve an overseas win. It's almost a mindset. We've got to turn it around."
