That is it from this game. Two more games coming up. On 4th of this month, Colombo Strikers will take on Galle Titans first. Join us at 3 pm IST (9.30 pm GMT). Join us for the action early on. Cheers!
Dasun Shanaka says the batting unit on this wicket did well. Credits Tim Seifert and Shakib Al Hasan for the way they played. Adds it is the mindset on how to play, Shakib Al Hasan showed his experience and reckons the local players should learn from him. Shares it is good to have bench strength.
Wanindu Hasaranga says they haven't played their best cricket yet but feels they should keep their heads up as it is a long season. Adds they lost their wicket at crucial times. Reckons they have nothing to lose and need just one good comeback.
Tim Seifert wins the Player of the Match award. He says they have to go through the condition as they moved to a different place. Adds he just wanted to execute his plans, put pressure on the bowlers and it worked out for him.
... Presentation time...
Galle Titans couldn't have asked for a better performance. First, they hammered the opposition with the bat. Tim Seifert was the man leading from the front, he along with Shakib Al Hasan just changed the angle of the game as Galle Titans did score 15-20 more on this pitch. Well, it turned out to be more than enough as the bowlers steal the show, all of them a wicket atleast. Two in two for Galle Titans this season.
A complete  horror show from B-Love Kandy who'll not love to watch the scoreboard anytime soon. A dismantle performance from them with the bat. Chasing such a huge score, they needed a big performance but there were more players with single-digit than a big one. Only, Ashen Bandara showed some intent but it was too late. B-Love Kandy were pushed 5 down inside the powerplay and from there it was never going to be easy to chase a big score.
