Player of the Match
Jacob Duffy | New Zealand
Yeah, it was (a solid effort). Very much so. Losing Tickner like that wasn’t ideal – he bowled brilliantly in the first innings – but I thought the way the guys stepped up today was outstanding.
Rae was brilliant, Foulky did his thing and Daryl chipped in as well. Just a great team performance to get the job done.
First thought was obviously for Blair, no one wants to see that, especially after how well he bowled. Then the second thought was my own body, I didn’t want a repeat of last week! But no, it was good to wrap it up quickly, and now we move on to the next one.
(On his back to back 5-fers) Time in the saddle definitely helps. Feeling comfortable at this level is a big part of it too. Just bringing my best stuff out – whether that’s swinging the ball or doing the tough, ugly overs.
The more you do it, the more comfortable you feel and you chip away at that imposter syndrome. You start to feel like you belong which is a nice feeling.
He’s (Rae) a good mate of mine and I’m absolutely stoked for him. We’ve both been working toward this for a long time. Six wickets on debut is no small achievement.
He was brilliant. And to do what he did today – slogging into the wind so I could come down with the breeze – I really appreciated that. Hopefully it’s just the start for him.
