Marcus Stoinis, Player of the Match: We thought it was probably about par. We had our chances to restrict them, which we didn't take, and that's unfortunate. But we were reasonably happy, I think. We squeezed them really well in the back 10 overs. I thought all 40 overs were tough to bat. I'm not sure whether that was the twilight period; it was definitely a bit of a grind. Unfortunately, it got to the stage where we really needed to hit some boundaries. We did that and got the game close. Jassy batted phenomenally, so credit to him. But we just lost wickets consistently, and it's hard for new batters to start and score on a pitch like that. So, yeah, it's a bit unfortunate.

What a game of cricket! It was anybody's game in the last five overs and Stoinis nearly got his side over the line. He had the upper hand against Pollard but one error brought New York right back. They had dominated for the most part, but in those last few overs, Orcas threatened to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Pollard held his nerve. brilliantly. Earlier, Quinton de Kock thumped a wonderful fifty on this tricky surface with uneven bounce and got his team to a par score. Stoinis led with both bat and ball and there was excellent bowling from Baartman as well. But MI New York also have a potent bowling attack and kept the pressure on right from ball one, bringing the innings to a halt and breaking partnerships at frequent intervals. Nobody got going apart from Stoinis and that is the reason they fell short of the target towards the end. Bosch bowled with some real heat, returning his best T20 figures, while Shepherd didn't give anything away, pushing with hard lengths and having a ball on this surface. Ugarkar was expensive, but in all, New York bowlers never seemed like letting batters get off the hook and found ways to keep things tight.

Pollard to Jasdeep Singh, 1 run, Dug in short and kept it wide intentionally so he had to fetch it, thumped across the line and doesn't go all the way but what an exhilarating seesaw low-scoring battle. That wicket of Stoinis proved to be the biggest game-changer

Pollard to Jasdeep Singh, no run, Bringing all of his experience to fore. Bangs it short in the corridor, early through the attempted pull and doesn't connect

Pollard to Jasdeep Singh, no run, Back of a length and hovering in the channel, early through the pull and doesn't connect, crucial dot!

Pollard to Baartman, 1 run, Shorter and slower on off, flicked away towards deep midwicket

Pollard to Stoinis, OUT, another twist in the tale! Shorter on a tight off-stump line, goes for a full-blooded cut and finds Shepherd who holds onto a great catch and both batters grunt in disappointment. Are we going to have a super over?

Pollard to Stoinis, SIX, Over the wicket, shorter length and outside off, no real pace to ruffle any feathers, smoked over long-off for a flat six, that went like a tracer bullet! Flogged for a straight six!
