Right then, that is it from this game. However the action continues in the Abu Dhabi T10 League as New York Strikers take on Team Abu Dhabi in the last game of the group stage. That game is set to start in a short while, and you can enjoy all the coverage by switching tabs. See you there!
Moeen Ali, the winning skipper of Morrisville Samp Army says that it is a good win and this will give them the momentum going into the playoffs. Adds that he would have liked to score some more but praises the others. Mentions that they have good depth in the squad as Maheesh Theekshana bowled brilliantly coming in for Anrich Nortje. Ends by saying that he is looking forward to the playoffs.
Shimron Hetmyer is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his blistering knock. He says that it was a nice feeling to be out there. Adds that he just wanted to enjoy and try to see the ball and hit the ball and it worked out. Mentions that this format is all about smashing it all around the park.
Presentation Time...
Chamika Karunaratne is in for a chat now. He says that it is great to win as they needed 10 points to stand a chance of finishing in the top two. Adds that he got his eye in after a long time having struggled for the past month and a half. Shares that it was the talk in the dressing room to not take it easy even after qualifying. Ends by saying that he is happy about this win and they did well in all three departments.
Earlier in the innings after electing to bat first, Northern Warriors managed to put on a decent total on the board thanks to the fifty from Adam Hose. Morrisville Samp Army gave away a lot of runs at the fag end of the innings, but some incredible hitting from their batters have saved the day for them. Morrisville Samp Army will be relaxed now as they know they will get that extra game in the playoffs.
Northern Warriors could not finish on a high as it was the same story for them again. They started off well, but just could not make those crucial breakthroughs in the midddle. However, they did give their opponents a scare picking up a couple of wickets in quick succession, but they let the momentum get away from them by bowling a lot loose deliveries. Mohammad Irfan was the pick of the bowlers with three wickets. They will have a lot of time to think now and come back stronger next season.
Morrisville Samp Army started their chase on the wrong note as they lost Johnson Charles on very first ball. However, the Shimron Hetmyer and Karim Janat took control of the game and smashed the bolwers all around the park. Shimron Hetmyer just missed out on his fifty but gave a good platform to the other batters to chase this down. However, there was a moment when they lost both Hettie and David Miller on consecutive balls and Moeen Ali got out to soon after. That did not cost them much as Chamika Karunaratne and Dwaine Pretorius made sure that no more damage is done and they took their side over the line quite comfortably in the end.
We have witnessed another thriller here! Morrisville Samp Army have completed their chase in style and they are going top of the table for now.
