Matt Montgomery, Nottingham:"We knew
what to expect from the pitch and we were ruthless throughout getting wickets from
the beginning. And then the way Haynes and Henriques controlled the chase tells
us it was a complete performance. The chase was a bit tricky because there was
turn but we controlled it really well. We fielded really well and in the
context of a low-scoring game like that it really helped the way we caught.The clarity is good, we know what we have to
do to qualify and hopefully we can continue this form, we are still in it. Two
more games next week, letâs see how it goes.Playing away from home shouldnât make an impact. We are growing as a team."

18.3 J Neesham to T Moores
0 Length slow ball on middle, Moores is early in the pull, hits him in the stomach and it is a dot ball.
