Player of the match
Nicholas Pooran | MINY
Chatting today we spoke about creating history. We lost our captain, and a couple of players. At the end of the day I am proud as everyone contributed.
We knew it was a good batting wicket, we were prepared for this moment from a week ago. We had to be confident and believe in each other.
