Mohammad Hafeez (Joburg Buffaloes Captain) - I think it's all about confidence. The game we lost we felt we should've won and I felt that we showed good character in this game. Everyone is in good touch, so I want to give a chance to all that's the thinking behind it. Everyone is looking for the challenge tomorrow and it's an important game for us.
Blessing Muzarabani is adjudged Player of the match for his brilliant bowling figures of 2-0-7-3
Joburg Buffaloes won by 9 wickets Mohammad Hafeez 40(23) | Rahmanullah Gurbaz 27(12) Blessing Muzarabani 3-7(2) | Tom Curran 1-10(1)
What a commanding performance from the Buffaloes as they were sensational in all departments of the game right from the word go. Muzarabani and Nyavuchi did the damage with the ball and restricted the opposition to a par score and in reply, Cottrell started off well but it was a big surprise to see him not bowl his second over when the wicket was assisting pace and swing
Curran's bowling choices raised a lot of eyebrows and moreover, the Samp Army didn't have a pacer who can hit the deck hard and bowl over 140kph. Hafeez played some brilliant shots and when Hatzoglou came to bowl his second over, Bopara decided to take him on and smashed 23 runs off his over to make things easier for his team
6.5 Sheldon Cottrell to Ravi Bopara, that's game set and match for the Joburg Buffaloes. Short of a length delivery down the leg side, pulled away towards the deep fine leg region and seals the deal for his team. Buffaloes win by 9 wickets.
6.4 Sheldon Cottrell to Ravi Bopara, SIX! Bopara shuffles across the off-stump and launches this fuller-length delivery around off well over the long-off fence for a maximum. That was nailed yet again, these two have made it look ridiculously easy.
6.3 Sheldon Cottrell to Mohammad Hafeez, Hafeez nudges away the length delivery around the pads towards the fine leg region for a single.
6.2 Sheldon Cottrell to Mohammad Hafeez, a mistimed swipe across the line on this occasion. Falls just short of the diving Rahmanullah Gurbaz who was charging in from deep midwicket. A couple of runs taken.
6.1 Sheldon Cottrell to Mohammad Hafeez, SIX! The Joburg Buffaloes are making light work of this target. Short of a length delivery from Cottrell, Hafeez goes for the pull, bit of a slice but carries all the way over the deep square leg fence.
Sheldon Cottrell comes back into the attack
Expensive over from Hatzoglou. Don't know whether this is the right time to give him the over but Tom Curran gave and the Samp Army paid heavy price as 23 runs came from it
