Heather Graham (Player of the Match): "Yes, it was. Credit to the girls in the powerplay. They put the pressure and we drove home the advantage. We want to go out there and play our best cricket and win. We are not bothered about the table. Great to see Villani batting through up the order and she did well. It's a great place for us and nice way to finish the week which has been hectic. Strano was good as well. Thank You."
