Ben Allison, Player of the Match: "Yeah, I think coming from last week against Sussex a tough loss. Then again, we have comeback again tonight and showed what we can do. Hopefully that would be a good start for us to go again tomorrow.
If you look at the group as a whole, everyone is beating everyone. So you kind of cannot rule out anything. Maybe at some point we can an entrance into the finals.
Yeah, absolutely Not playing for 2 games made me a bit hungry. So I got my opportunity and hopefully, I have done well."
