So, that's it from our coverage of the ILT20 game between MI Emirates and Abu Dhabi Knight Riders. Hope you have enjoyed our coverage and it's time for us to say good bye. This is myself, Saptak Sanyal signing off on the behalf of my co-commentator Deepak Prakash and our scorer/analyst Chandan Kumar Singh. Stay safe, good night.
Trent Boult (Player of the Match): "He's always got advice for me, so, yeah, full credit to Danny Morrison. I'm trying to swing the ball and pitch the ball up, but most of the time I'm going full tilt. So, yeah, it was nice to get a couple moving tonight. And as a collective, I thought the boys bowled very well. To keep aside as star-studded as that under 100 runs, it was a great effort.
[Talking about his rhythm] I think when you see a bowler in good rhythm, for me, that's down to two things. It's about technique, it's about timing. So it all comes from a run-up. So any kid out there who is struggling with a run-up or timing at the crease, it's very important to just take it nice and slow and gather your pace as you get to the crease. So it was advice I got early in my career and I've been lucky to have a good run-up over the years.
Nicky P is a great captain and I touched on it with Danny this afternoon. We have some very experienced T20 cricketers in our team. Someone like DJ Bravo is a great guy to bounce ideas off.
Yeah, I've been very lucky with the road and injuries and stuff like that, but there's no substitute for hard work, I think. I like to get in the gym, I like to do the work.
[Akeal Hosein] I jokingly told him I didn't like it because he's stealing my first over, but he's a guy with tremendous skill, swings the ball nicely. Although he's primarily a spin bowler, the whole team has been great to gel with, and I think we've got a team that can go very far in this tournament."

Nicholas Pooran (MI Emirates Captain)- "Tonight we really wanted to win the game. We were defeated heavily in the first game in Dubai and boys accepted the challenge and came back stronger.
We are really happy to have Trent Boult in our team. I think he just used his experience and he just swung the ball tonight and got everything right. Akeal has performed well in the last game too. Our bowlers are doing a commendable job so far.
Our team is in a good shape. We have to be as humble as possible and continue our performance."

Sunil Narine (Abu Dhabi Knight Riders Captain): "I think when you lose four wickets in the power play, you're more or less on the back foot. So I think the key to this game would have been trying to accumulate and soak up a few dot balls and get out of the powerplay with two wickets max.
We need to forget about it as soon as possible because we have a game in two days' time. So it'll be good to get over this as soon as possible and come out ready for your next game."
