Player of the Match
Glenn Maxwell | Melbourne Stars
Pretty extraordinary, sometimes wins like that feel better. We are off the line just like we were against the Renegades, we stay in the hunt. I felt like I played and missed multiple balls this innings. We need a bit of luck in this game, and glad I could take the opportunities to get the job done.
(On James Vince’s catch) It was pretty high, would have made a hole in the roof. I just wanted to stay still and get my hands under it. It was such a big wicket. We’ll give it every chance, we’ll keep fighting and winning momentum is a fun thing in cricket.
