Presentation:
Player of the Match: Leus du Plooy(JSK) Timing throughout the entire inning was challenging. We had the opportunity to play on it yesterday, and I got lucky, so we reached a respectable total. I questioned him about the weather and am confident that he will buy me a beer later [on Wade]. With a captain like Faf and a coach like Fleming who has won numerous IPL championships, it is an amazing tournament to be a part of. I’ll keep growing and learning as much as I can.
Rashid Khan(MICT): We had the ball under control when we started, but in the middle, we failed to carry out our strategy. It cost us because we made runs. It wasn’t a 190-run wicket. It ought to have been less than 150, and that would have been a fantastic total for us to go after. There is a lesson to be learned, and the next time will be much better. Overall, if you look at this tournament, we didn’t play the game well and didn’t score enough runs with our hitting. We have only scored 2-3 fifty-scores in the past ten games, which hurts in T20s. There are a lot of balls to play with—120—so that’s something to think about. We lost wickets at crucial moments when we needed to score runs. I was blown away by how crowded every stadium was and how successful the competition was. I believe this will grow significantly after the IPL and reach a new level within the next three to four years.
Faf du Plessis(JSK): I was considering how to play the arm-ball and half-tracker that was intended to be sent for four. The only ball in the entire game that did that probably struck a patch and spun. You could see Wade play with energy, play those laps with excellent alternatives for him, and that the powerplay is crucial for trying to establish an advantage in the game. Du Plooy is having a terrific time; he has a lot of maturity for someone his age. The majority of the nation’s spinners are contributing, and the weather is a little bit dryer. The wicket is not a traditional Jo’Burg wicket. Your plans are based on what you see about the situation there. He is [on Coetzee] developing swiftly at a raw speed. Really upset; a home semifinal would have been ideal, but our location will change. There is a bowler’s cemetery there, so we must alter our plans and return.
“JSK scored a significant victory in a game that had no bearing on the battle for the semifinals. Although MICT had a good lineup at the plate, they never got going. Wesley Marshall left first, and the others soon after. Kyle Simmonds had two crucial hits in one over, and Brevis had the highest score with 27. JSK’s fielding was excellent, and the bowling just benefited from that. Despite Lizaad Williams’ fast and furious bowling, Gerald Coetzee and Simmonds each took six wickets to help their team to a straightforward victory”.
