Porterfield: "The first five overs were crucial. They got away. They fielded really well. They didn't make it easy for us. Our preparation has been good and we will learn a lot from the Super Eights.

McCullum: Redmond played an unbelievable innings. To come in and play an innings like that was great. Hopefully Butler's injury is not serious. He will hopefully be ok.

Man of the match - Redmond "Sometimes, when you are taken off the couch and thrown into action, you have a good day. The boys are doing well."

That's it from us. Thanks for logging on. See you later.

Brendon you beauty. What a fielder. It was hit to right of him at extra cover and he rushed across, picked up the ball and fired in a direct hit at the non-striker's end. Gone!

Johnson goes for the reverse sweep but edges it high and Diamanti runs back from covers but fails to catch it. A better effort from him could have fetched a wicket. It wasn't all that far from him in the end
