Kyle Verreynne: An improvement on two nights ago, that was the target. We had a tough series against Afghanistan. It’s quite a good wicket. I think it was a little slow when we were batting. The boundaries are quite big so we tried to hit the ball in the gaps and push the fielders. To win is a win, whether you win by five runs or twenty runs, it doesn’t matter. Winning is our first priority. (On Bavuma’s injury) He’s got a soft tissue injury so he won’t be fielding, so Rassie will be doing captaincy in his abscence.
