Hero of the Match: James Vince
James Vince(Hero of the Match & Southern Brave Captain): "Yes it is emphatic to get the win. Glad to have won batting first as it was tougher condition. Our bowlers have been magnificent. CJ did what he has been doing since a long time and Overton has also been fantastic with the new ball.
Forming a playing eleven becomes tricky for us at times and that's a good headache to have. If Jofra comes once ECB allows him, we will have another option available."

Chris Jordan(Southern Brave): "I think it is time to go as per our plans. Hitting consistent areas was tough for us but I continued to do that somehow. Vincey is a very cool skipper and he works a lot on the endgame adjustments.
We speak a lot in the meeting that we have only five bowlers to bowl but I think it is a very balanced attack as we have guys to bowl in any phases of the game. Jofra didn't play tonight but we got the win. Having a good role clarity has been the key for us.
Last ball of my last set was a little bit disappointing but I tried to restrict the batters to hit through square of the wickets. It feels good to be at the top of the table. We never finished on tp and as we got that, there's a calmness in the dressing room. We have to take one game at a time."
