Player of the match
Dewald Brewis | MI New York
I am so happy at the moment. It is good to see the result going our way. I really enjoyed it, I don’t mind where I bat, I am happy to contribute. Polly gave me some wise words and that helped me. I kept playing my shots and enjoyed the moment. I thought whenever the ball is in my area, I am going. Everyone chipped in in this game.
