Bas De Leede was adjudged Player of the match. “I think I could take a bit of experience from two days ago. We lost wickets at the end, we had to deal with it. We lost wickets at bad times. We can’t afford to do that and we can learn from that as a team. The self belief has always been there and it’s nice to win two tight games. Maybe it opens up a bit more freedom for the boys,” he said after the match
