So, that is it from this game then! Still a game to go though as Dolphins will be locking horns with Highveld Lions. Do join us for that too. That game begins at 1800 IST (1230 GMT). The build up though begins earlier. Till then, take care and goodbye!
Nicky van den Bergh, the skipper of North West Dragons says that it is nice to get off to a good start. Mentions that they have too many options available and they have a well-balanced team. Tells that once the momentum is there, one needs to build on that otherwise it can prove to be very costly.
Senuran Muthusamy is the BOWLER OF THE MATCH. He says that it was a great collective effort from the bowling and the fielding unit. He mentions that they created the pressure and that got them wickets. He credits Marshall and other batters to finish it off clinically.
Wesley Marshall is the BATTER OF THE MATCH. He says that the bowlers bowled well to restrict them to 94. Mentions that his role is very clear and he tries to play his natural game and stays positive. Tells that he likes to play his natural game and is glad that he can do that.
Stay tuned for the presentation.
Knights need to take this game out of their system as quickly as possible. It is quite rare that you play a game and there is nothing positive to take from it but this was one such rare game for Knights. They got two wickets with the ball and if you are a very optimistic supporter of Knights then those wickets are the positives they have from this game.
A perfect game for North West Dragons. They bowled to their plans with the ball and just did not let the game drift away. They had the lowest total of this season to chase and Wesley Marshall and Heino Kuhn came out all guns blazing. They hammered 66 runs in the Powerplay and though Marshall departed after that the formalities were completed easily.
Knights have been absolutely demolished here! Is this the same pitch, Knights batted on? Can’t be sure after watching Dragons bat here. There was no doubt that Dragons will chase this one but to do it in just 10.1 overs is unbelievable. They earn a bonus point too and have now won two games on the trot.

FOUR LEG BYES! Short of a length, on middle. Nicky van den Bergh wasn't prepared for that one and he takes his eyes off the ball and turns his head away. The ball hits his helmet and goes to the third man fence. The physio is out for the mandatory concussion test and Nicky van den Bergh is fine to resume.
