2pm What a game for Pollard. Runs: check. Wickets check. Catches: check. So, TKR zoom to their ninth win in nine games.
Pollard, TKR captain and Man of the Match: I think they had us under pressure, some of our guys stood up. We batted in two halves, and overall good match for us. Hopefully, I can continue to lead and lead well. You need the support of everyone. It was one of the better wickets in the tournament, 24-run margin, but it was a lot closer I thought. We want to play the ball and not play the wicket. Munro is struggling a bit, but everyone else is available. We have a combination to go into the final stage.
Sammy, Zouks captain: Like Pollard said, we had them under pressure, I thought today was the best wicket we had. Probably at the back end, we did not bat as well. Pollard and Bravo made us of the big side of the field. Anybody who wants to win the tournament has to go through them. They're the team to beat. If you see TKR, you don't want to bowl spin to Polly and Bravo, and you have to juggle.
So, that's the lot for you from this game. Thanks for tuning in. This is Deiva Muthu signing off on the behalf of Thilak Ram and P Ranjith. Stay safe and cheers.
Sarah : "Seales performing very well in these situations here... in a few years I can see him being a death over specialist bowler. Standing up to the pressure very well in this team "
Leonardo : "Another MOTM performance from the big man and captain Pollard"
Danish: "In my opinion Sammy has not been the same since he got injured playing for Peshawar 1.5 years ago and finished that game a hero. His best playing days are behind him and it"s visible he can't lead by example anymore. He's a great leader and should pursue a career in coaching, I bet he'd be in high demand."

Samarpan Panta : "Eagerly waiting for another exciting match - Jamaica Vs Barbados !! Specially to watch top wicket taker and obviously best leg spinners Mujeeb , Lamichhane & Rashid . 13 , 10 & 10 Wickets respectively ..."
Chase at No.8
Narayan Devkota: "It's been a disappointing season for Daren Sammy both in batting and bowling ! Can he make some memorable performance in Semi's ?"

Aymee Genager: "There was no intent from the very first over, Sesh. They were lagging with the strike rotation and finding the gap. "

Ramchander Sesh: "Painful to watch. 5 wickets in the hutch and no intent whatsoever!"
Narayan Devkota: "Pollard's spell was fabulous today despite he went for some runs ! That won't sounds surprising if I say he will be brilliant in UAE pitches !"

Samrat Ahuja: "Sammy has scored more than his tournament average already!! 2.6!!"
Joel King: "Pollard's wicket has mostly came out of good sort-a-length. He deceives the batsman with no pace. You can't clear the boundary unless you muscle it with the bottom hand. "
Asad : "Mark my words, Sammy would shut all his critics today. "

Samrat Ahuja: "Pollard's code of taking a wicket : hit me for 6, then give me your wicket! Buying his wickets there surely! Nabi, Deyal, Fletcher...same procession!!"
Dylan Sharma: "Zouks only batted with this different kit in today's match. No clue why at all. Always liked Pollard as a bowler and his shoulder has definitely held his bowling back over the years. Glad to see him at his peak now."
Narayan Devkota: "With the Wicket of Najibullah , It's Trinbago from here !! "
