When asked whether West Indies were overtly dependent on Gayle, Lloyd said, “I wouldn’t say that (being overdependent on Gayle) — before Zimbabwe, Gayle hadn’t really contributed. It’s great whenever we get a good start with him. He scores rather quickly. He’s a very strong player. Whenever he takes off, it gives the team a good impetus.” ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: SCHEDULE & MATCH Details

When asked about India’s strengths and their performance in the tournament so far, Lloyd said, “They’ve won three out of three. So we can’t fault their bowling or their batting. India’s always a formidable side and they’ll continue to be so. But when you set a standard, people expect you to keep that standard all the time. India are doing well but I hope they don’t do too well on Friday.” ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: Complete Coverage
