Commentary

That brings us to the end of our coverage of this match. One more match remains today - the Cape Town Samp Army take on the Joburg Buffaloes. Arya and Pragadeesh will take you through that game right here, click to follow! This is Rajarshi, signing off on behalf of Pradeep for now. See you later!

Eoin Morgan [Harare Hurricanes captain]: Very impressed, the opening stand was outstanding, set the tone and just continued to flow throughout the 20 overs of the game, hopefully can continue similarly in the games to come. It'll continue to be like this in the next few games, easy to bat under the lights, taking advantage of the conditions is key. Every ball counts in this format, every ball has such a high price, can go either way and Sreesanth has been brilliant, rescued us in the last game and Jongwe this game. T10 gives you the platform to elevate your skills, always under pressure to take wickets or hit boundaries, huge challenge and I'm big fan of this format.

Robin Uthappa is the Player of the Match!

Andre Fletcher 50*(25) | Azmatullah Omarzai 1/17 (2)

How often do we see a team lose a cricket match by 8 wickets? The target of 135 proved to be way too much for the Durban Qalandars top-order to handle; Andre Fletcher and Hazratullah Zazai's efforts turned out to be not nearly enough! The Harare Hurricanes bowlers have backed their batting performance to perfection. Barring the 21-run over from Kevin Koththigoda, none of their bowlers went for exorbitant amount of runs throughout their quota of overs!

Eoin Morgan's tactic of opening the bowling with Mohammad Nabi turned out to be a masterstroke. Nabi's quick, full deliveries were hard for the two Qalandars openers to put away, and after Nandre Burger did a great job in keeping the lid on the batters in his first over, there was a feeling that something was going to give. It did, Seifert lofted a wide-ish first delivery from Luke Jongwe towards deep backward point, Kevin Koththigoda ran a few meters back, dived forward and completed a catch worth watching a billion times.

The image of Hazratullah Zazai joining Andre Fletcher would have given a sense of assurance to the Qalandars initially, but as the middle overs passed by, such assurance started to fade away. The Hurricanes bowlers, having been rotated by Morgan to perfection, hit the right lengths more often than not, not giving anything to hit to both the batters, and went on to squeeze the Qalandars past the point of victory with time to spare. Stay tuned, the post match presentations are coming up...
