Prenelan Subraye (Dolphins Captain): "Happy to be in the winning side of the game. There was a bit of nervousness and its good as it helps to be better in terms of the preparations. Khaya Zondo's experience helped us a lot and way he stepped up in the match, stated his class in the game."
Batter of the Match- Khaya Zondo
Bowler of the Match- Eathan Bosch
Matthew Breetzke (Warriors Captain)- "It is very frustrating to lose the momentum. We have played good cricket throughout the tournament but in the backend, we were not that good enough.
