So that marks the end of our coverage from the final group stage game of this edition's SA20. For now, this is Saptak Sanyal signing off on the behalf of our scorer/analyst Yogesh Kumar. Good night.
Patrick Kruger (Player of the Match)- "I just tried to keep calm and backed my abilities and then I was lucky enough that the things were good for me. I just had some personal issues and I worked a lot with my coaches and worked to enhance my game finishing abilities. I didn't have a big game plan, just went there and hit the balls. I am excited for the play-offs."
Player of the Match- Patrick Kruger
Aiden Markram (Sunrisers Eastern Cape Captain)- "Not 100% sure about the reason of our consistency but I can say that we have executed well in the correct and crucial places. The game was moving away and we tried to take the game deep as far as we can and sometimes it is not the most exciting brand of cricket but we have to do it to get the things going. A big game is coming up and it is fantastic to appear in the play-off against a great team. I appreciate the noise and the support of the crowd."
David Miller (Paarl Royals Captain)- "We have lost a few games but I think it is a great game for us. Obviously there are places where we can do well. We have a lot of young seamers and they have bowled in right areas. I am very happy with their performance. I think doing the right thing at the right places will be the key for the knockouts. I think we have to stay in the game as long as we can and we should regroup and think of our weak points."
