What a finish! A nail-biter to the very end. Well played to both teams, but in the end, there can be only one winner. Blasters will breathe a sigh of relief after today's match and will be hoping to be more authoritative in the next one. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. Swing and spin benefited greatly throughout the day. Blasters was expected to win this game and they duly obliged. It's been a good team performance all things considered.
