Requiring 41 off the last two overs, Phillips took apart Indian pacer Kuldip Yadav as he smoked him for four concecutive boundaries which included three maximums and a four. Phillips was eventually scalped by Kuldip but the damage was already done by the foreign batter as Abdul Samad finished off the match on the final delivery.
“Thank You very much. The situation could have gone either way and thankfully it went our way. We prepared well and got the result. Today it was fantastic as we got over the line and happy I could contribute to the team. The dismissal was a slot ball that should have been put away. So, I was disappointed to say the least. But with 17 needed, I thought I left something out there. But Samad was magnificent and we got lucky with the no ball in the end. I am happy and chuffed that we got over the line. Thank you very much,” Phillips said after being adjudged as player of the match.
