    Cricket is brilliant. No matter what the format.

    End of story.

    I've got no idea who MOTM should be. (It was obviously Livi if BP had won.)

    It's Jofra.

    Yes all right! <laugh>

    I was expecting Vince to come out that's all.

    I think we all were tbf. And if we'd been chasing, say, 12 or 13 then I suspect he would have done. But very sensible, and selfless, from him to realise that one six is basically all that chase needed (or two 4s, as it transpired) - and CJ was more likely to hit that.

    Excellent fightback from being 93-2 and facing something massive. However, with our limited batting line-up, I do fear that might still be about 15 too many for us to chase.

    If Vince doesn’t get a big score we won’t be in it.

    Fair play to Mahmood. He wouldn't even be in the team if Johnson had been fit, and he's just bowled a tournament-winning set of 10.

    Yet again the power of a set of 10 is shown.

    Du Plooy and Evans, kindly find yourselves a new franchise. Absolute **** the pair of them.
