India are on a roll, having won all their three matches in the World Cup so far. Having ended UAE’s challenge in quick time on Saturday, India skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni heaped praised on the team’s all-round performance. Excerpts:

On overall performance

The bowlers have really stepped up and in a team sport it starts to reflect in other departments too. Our batting has been good. We dropped one catch today but the fielding has been brilliant. The complete unit has been doing well. It is not in case of a single match, we are doing for three matches, one after another. We have to continue with the good effort.

On the bowling

When we were losing quite a few games outside the subcontinent, it was an area of concern that we were not getting wickets in the middle overs. Now we are getting wickets with the new ball and the spinners are able to put more pressure on the batsmen in the middle overs.

On Bhuvneshwar Kumar

He looked good. First five overs he bowled he was looking sharper than he did when he came back from the injury and played the Test match. If he plays a few more games, we can see how he can bowl in the death overs also.
