What they Said
"Yes, it was a patchy, bitty match.
โBut the wind was the main cause.
"One moment it was swirling all around you and the next it was blowing hard in one direction and ball control was extremely difficult.
โThere was a lot of young players out there between the two sides and maybe with a bit more experience it would have been different."
Ron Saunders.
