Player of the Match
James Vince | Sydney Sixers
I think the bowlers did a fantastic job. I think restricting them to 155 was a great effort from the bowlers. Was a kind of a wicket where we didn’t want the required run rate to get soaring high.
12-13 runs per over at the back end would have been tough. Would like to get a few more runs in this competition. It was nice to spend some time in the middle. You want to peak at the back end of the competition.
Hopefully, we save our best cricket for the back end. We don’t play until next Friday, and then we have a game on Sunday, hopefully, we have saved our best for the finals. He (Murphy) is a top-class bowler.
The lengths he hits and the way he found something from the wicket, bowled beautifully along with other bowlers. Maybe Smudge (Smith) can play in the middle-order. Will be great to have him back.
