Eoin Morgan (Harare Hurricanes Captain): "The match should not go down to the last over, but the wicket is quite slow, making it challenging to adopt an aggressive approach without losing wickets. On the other hand, the opposing team played exceptionally well as they are one of the top teams in this tournament. Sreesanth came in and bowled an excellent last over. It was a thrilling moment in today's match, and the momentum was strongly in favor. The match today was a fantastic display of skill and excitement."
