Player of the match
Tom Abell | Welsh Fire
Very happy, we were desperate for the win. We are still in the competition now. Captaincy is all about adapting, it helps when you have a world-class bowling unit. The lads executed the plans perfectly.
We had the luxury of learning from the first innings, but that spell from Worrall was very good. Me and Jonny just wanted to stay there for as long as possible, we knew the runs would come.
