The speaker is talking about their trouble bowling towards the finish of the game after a long time. They state that they were confident, and that the team’s performance in the second-to-last over assisted them in getting back into the game. Because the boundaries in front of the wicket were so lengthy, the goal was to bowl straight. The speaker also adds how upset they were not to win the previous two games, but how thrilled they are to having won a game in the World Cup for the first time.
