Titans 1ST INN Sydney Sixers 1ST INN
Thanks for joining us today. Hope you enjoyed the fascinating game. We look forward to your company for the big final on Sunday(28-10-12), between Lions and Sidney Sixers in Wanderers Stadium at 15:30 GMT. Untill then Cheers and goodbye, this is Bhatti & Fareed signing off.
O'Keefe: 'It was good fun to open the batting. I'll take it. We are in the final now and anything can happen. There is some nervous energy around the ranks.'
Man of the match - SNJ O'Keefe (Sydney Sixers):- Runs:32 - Balls:21 - 4s:6 - SR:152.38.
Brad Haddin: I thought we were good in the first 10 overs with the ball and first 5 overs with the bat. We panicked a bit but did well and we are in the final. We can take what we want out of this game. Bottomline is we are in a final now. I think the best two teams reached the final.
Van Jaarsveld: Obviously really disappointed. Proud of the boys. We kept fighting throughout. Our execution at the top was not good and probably why we lost the game. The crowd was fantastic and we thank them for their support.
Titans look gutted, it is always a bitter pill to swallow if one loses in front of their home crowd, but it was the manner in which they lost that would hurt them. They can be proud of their efforts though and look to comeback as a better unit in the future
Rohrer kept Sydney in the chase but it was Cummins who made the difference in the end with a cool and calculated display of hitting. That has spoiled the South African party somewhat, Sydney will take on the Lions in the finals at Johannesburg on Sunday.
An excellent cricket match in the end. Titans looked all but out when Sydney got off to a rollicking start. They pulled back thanks to some smart bowling and some reckless running from the Sydney middle order batsmen.
