He lauded Nidamanaru and Van Beek for performing admirably and playing a major role in the special victory. He said:"I don't think I have been a part of a better individual game of cricket than this. We have a lot of belief in this group. The way we have been playing our cricket, we knew that we had to bat well. Teja (Nidamanaru) was phenomenal, as was Logan (van Beek) towards the end."Edwards added:"We have worked hard on our running between the wickets over the last eighteen months. Logan seemed to be in some kind of a trance, hitting almost every ball for a six or a four in the super over. We knew that this was going to be a massive game. We are fortunate that we are going into the super six with two points in our pocket."
