And that's all from our coverage of the final group-stage game. It's goodbye from me, Rvel Zahid, on behalf of Harshith Gowda

Harry Tector, Dublin Guardians Captain: Yeah, delighted. Delighted. It was a real team effort. I thought the way the guys hung in there with the ball in some really challenging conditions was fantastic. To limit them to a score of 180 was, I think, pretty good on that surface, particularly with the dimensions and the wind, and then the way Vince came out and batted was obviously exceptional, and we managed to chip in around him, and just delighted to finish the season on a high. I think we've done really well this season of staying together as a group. You know, the results haven't gone our way, which is a bit disappointing, but we've managed to keep a really good core amongst the squad, and we've had a good time. Obviously disappointed with results this season, but really happy with the way the team has stuck together, and thankfully we were able to bring that out today. Yeah, I think we definitely spoke about trying to use the wind and the dimensions to our advantage. I think the way Vince played that sixth over was just fantastic. It was world-class batting, and I think that over pretty much set us up to go on and chase the total just over eight an over, and we managed to elongate that period up until the tenth or eleventh, and then everyone who came in was able to support Vincy. But yeah, I think we won it particularly in that sixth over. Yeah, I think you've hit the nail on the head there. I think you want the group to stay together because this is going to be a tournament that's going to go over years, and hopefully we can keep the core of the group together, which is really important. And I think, like I said previously, I think we've done that really well, and we've kept having a good time on and off the pitch, which is really important. And I think that sort of gives a lot of belief to the group, that we actually weren't far off this comp, so yeah, nice way to finish. I think just the exposure to a higher level of cricket for so many games is just brilliant for all the local players, really Irish, Scottish, Dutch, and the associate players. To be able to mix with some of the best players in the world is fantastic, see how they go about their business, and as I was saying this morning to one of the lads, you don't need to ask questions because you can just watch how they go about their business. And personally, watching James Vince do that today, you can learn an awful lot. So yeah, it's been brilliant from that aspect, and that may continue

Faf du Plessis, Rotterdam Dockers Captain: You know, one guy, a classy player, James Vince. I think he scored 85 percent of the runs of the innings. So sometimes you just got to tip your hat to a guy that played a world-class knock. I'm very proud of the way the guys went about their business. I think the top team and the team that came fourth is on the same wins. So, you know, competition is very small margins, but throughout the competition, six out of ten games win. Net run rate obviously is the thing that just got us towards the end. But if you take the rest of their performance today, if you take James Vince out of there, there's not much there. No, it's a difficult one. I don't think so. I felt we were put under pressure early doors, losing quite a few wickets, consolidated nicely, and walking off halfway, I felt that was a very good score with the extra bit of bounce there with the new ball. So you just got to, you can look at many things in the match and go, what about that? What about that? But faultless innings from James Vince, the way that he played and single-handedly won them the game. Yeah, it's a rubber green sometimes. Sometimes you have it, sometimes you don't. There was a few of those lucky runs today, but as I said, even with that, the highlight of the day will be that innings. I mean obviously (Klaasen) played a great knock as well. He had to absorb the pressure there with me early doors when we were in a little bit of trouble, and then he could really express himself to the back end. But just the way that they went through the powerplay, I never really felt like we could build pressure because they kept scoring, and he was crucial in that. So I knew if we can get him out, we've got a good chance of winning the game. If we don't, and as he did at the end, they'll get across the line. Yeah, great comp. I think personally and for the team, like I said, very proud of the way the guys went about their business. You know, you look at the overseas players and coming across and how they put their hand up under fire. I think 19 wickets, David Wiese maybe also 18 wickets, Heinrich Klaasen. So the guys that come over with pedigree and are your big-name players, how well they performed through the competition. And then your trusted advisors, the guys like Roelof van der Merwe and the way that he went about his business. So probably if I really firm in us and making sure there was an area that we could feel like we could improve is maybe one more batter just raise his hand throughout the competition. But that's the great thing I find with year one in competition like this, a lot of learning happens from year one to year two to year three to year four because guys don't get the opportunity to play against the high quality all the time. So it's great learning for the guys. But all in all, very happy with the way that we went this. I mean, it's a tough rule, the three guys qualifying, but I think it's a good rule. I think it puts you there and thereabouts for playing good cricket. We played very good cricket and we still didn't make it because of net run rate. But you know net run rate is going to be a thing towards the end of the comp. So you've got that one game, I think we lost by 40 runs early on in the comp, is the game that at the end came back to bite us

Guardians stitch together a complete performance and have stunned Faf du Plessis, who will be disappointed not to have got his team to the final! They were the favourites for this game, but James Vince had other ideas, and he regaled us with a gem of a hundred, the first of this league, and he remained unbeaten till the end. Superb and silky century! He got some help from Tector and Sanjay as well. Dockers couldn't make enough inroads and were put under pressure in the powerplay. It was simply not their day. A couple of tough chances were put down as well and they couldn't recover at all. A bitter pill to swallow as they miss out owing to net-run-rate and they had it within their reach and yet will be packing their bags alongside Guardians.
