Sam Curran (Player of the Match): "Really good going with the Vipers. To be here for the whole tournament is a nice culture. It was a tricky pitch. There was a bit of moisture. It turned out to be a bit of Test match cricket where trusting the defence remained the key.
They got a few best swing bowlers. It was tough to go in the early overs but once we got over, we got the thing easier. Lastly Sherfane (Rutherford) did very well with the bat."

Lockie Ferguson ( Desert Vipers Captain) : " Yeah, obviously a tough wicket to bat on. It was amazing how Sam batted. It is always nice to get over the line. We just let them fly and let them take control of their own game.
The confident of the group is great and that's how we roll on."

James Vince (Gulf Giants Captain): "I think it was tough to bat first. We played here the other night but the rain last night has added some moisture. We didn't bat well. They bowled really well and 120 is always tough to defend.
We gave a spirited effort with the ball. Our bowlers partnership with the ball was good but there was not enough resources to defend. Hopefully we will make a good comeback."
