Harry Brook (Northern Superchargers Captain): "Yeah it was awesome to watch him bat at the middle (On Nicholas Pooran). Yeah it was more to play fearless cricket at the middle and not to worry about getting out.
Yeah our Head Coach is quite chilled and we don't require a lot of meetings, we just want to keep it simple at times and I feel I give the players the license to play freely. Yeah I am no one for meetings in fact, we have a little bit of chat and analysis but at the end of the day we have to do it at the middle that is also that matters. Yeah I am not 100% sure weather Ben Stokes will make himself available for the Hundred but it would be great to captain him in the side.
We have two of the best spinners in the world and the way we bowled, it was phenomenal. I think I am available for the rest of the tournament to play for my side."

Nicholas Pooran (Hero of the Match): "First of all, I want to give thanks to Jesus. It feels amazing. After losing the first game, playing back-to-back games at home, we really wanted this win. The guys played brilliantly, and it was a complete game. The bowlers were fantastic. We knew we needed a good start, so we looked their bowlers, made our plans, and aimed to finish strong. It's always great to play here in England."
