Player of the Match
Dan Lawrence | Desert Vipers
I think the situation was nice to come into, knowing I had to give myself a little time. Lockie did really well, we’ve got a really experienced bowling attack. The plans were clear and we executed them really well. From the hotel to how the coaches treat you, probably the most professional setup I’ve been a part of.
