Wayne Parnell (Player of the match & Seattle Orcas Captain): "I think it's just about processing I think. After the last game, I didn't bowl as well as I would have liked but it was a new game and a new day and we have to reset in every game. (On his captaincy) I have enjoyed it, though I have not many trophies to my name but I have always seen myself as a leader and so far it has gone well.
We were simply assessing the requirements, and we found enough support in the wicket. The key was to bowl accurately in the appropriate areas, which was quite gratifying. However, we must remain focused as there are still two crucial matches ahead before we can consider the knockout games. Playing in diverse venues and dealing with challenging conditions has been tough, but it's vital to promote the sport in the USA."

Faf du Plessis | Texas Super Kings Captain: "Tricky wicket in the first innings, two paced but we needed to get through the first 6 overs and minimize the damage. The batting was tentative and filled with doubts and they took the game in the first 10 overs. Even for them the wicket was tricky but they hung in. Everyone's disappointed and you don't need an emotional response to this. We need to make sure we do more things right in the next game."

Quinton de Kock | Seattle Orcas: "We just had to make sure we didn't lose many wickets up front. Can't quite put my finger on it but everyone is contributing every game, all of us want to win. I'm not sure if I have made any impact, if I have then it's great and if the youngsters need a chat I am happy to provide that. We are quietly confident, don't want to get ahead of us, just need to keep momentum and a couple more wins will take us to the playoffs."
6:13 AM IST, 8:43 PM Local Time | Deepak: Seattle Orcas continue their winning streak and now they climb to the top of the table. They thumped TSK by 8 wickets with 24 balls to spare.
Seattle Orcas got off to a cautious start in pursuit of the modest target of 127 runs. Their openers, Quinton de Kock and Nauman Anwar, played sensibly and focused on rotating the strike with singles and doubles rather than going for big shots. The pair steadily built their innings and managed to score 60 runs in the first 10 overs, laying a solid foundation for their team's chase. However, their progress was halted by Santner, who clean-bowled Anwar for 19 runs off 32 balls and ceased the 67-run opening partnership. De Kock accelerated his scoring rate and went on to complete his half-century but his innings came to an end when he departed for 53 runs off 36 balls, as he couldn't see the team through till the end.
Heinrich Klaasen ( 42* off 21) and Dasun Shanaka (10* off 7) joined forces in the middle, and the former wreaked havoc with the bat and hammered 24 runs off the 15th over, helping his side chase down this total by 8 wickets with 24 balls to spare.
On the bowling front, Mitchell Santner and Mohammad Mohsin were the only bowlers to extract a wicket each for the TSK.

Earlier, Seattle Orcas won the toss and invited Texas Super Kings to bat first. TSK got off to a nightmare start as they lost a flurry of wickets at the beginning of the innings and were reeling at 48/6 in the 9th over. DJ Bravo and Daniel Sams paired up in the middle and started the rescue operation for the Super Kings. The pair completed a 50+ runs partnership for the 7th wicket, but their progress was halted by Andrew Tye, who trapped Sams for 26 runs and ceased the budding partnership. Bravo departed for a run-a-ball 39 runs, and eventually, TSK were bundled out for 127 runs at the end of 20 overs. Skipper Parnell wreaked havoc with the ball and completed his 5-fer on the occasion for Seattle Orcas.
