Gerhard Erasmus (Player of the Match): "I played a lot of cricket towards the end of the last year and then getting into the setup early really helped.
It can be like that in this ground, at Sharajah, with the wind blowing you tend to have boundary options throughout.
I am happy to contribute in whatever way I can, was more than happy to be on the field today."

Player of the Match - Gerhard Erasmus
James Vince ( Gulf Giants Captain) : "Yeah, it feels good to be on the winning side. This is exactly what we needed. I think 160 was a decent score on the board. yea, they timed their partnership to perfection. Erasmus played some dot balls early in his innings but he made up for it later and Hettie too joined along-with him.
We don't really worry about the tomorrow, we just try to stay in the present."

Sikandar Raza (Dubai Capitals' Captain): "When we batted on that wicket, I thought they will have to bat really well to get to that. Today it was a typical Sharjah wicket, in hindsight we were looking at 170 but the way those two batted was brilliant.
At the end of the day, we need to hold on to our catches, we have not made it easy for ourselves. It is not that we are not training enough, we are training hard it is just a case of dozing off at certain times, in a league like this you cannot afford to do that.
When you want to make a turnaround, you have got to beat the best teams or the teams that are doing really well. If you see, the teams that are ahead of us are just one win ahead and this could turn around pretty quickly."
