Imraan Khan Blog: "I thought we put up a helluva fight"
We did not end our Standard Bank Pro20 campaign with a bang as I had hoped but we took a young and inexperienced team to Potchefstroom and I thought we put up a helluva fight.
We got ourselves into all sorts of trouble on eight for three so to post 159 was a good effort.
All credit must go to David Miller. To score 90 off just 52 balls shows how good he is. He is a wonderful ball-striker and if he keeps working hard the sky is the limit.
Who knows, perhaps national honours may not be too far away.
Most people know that the Dolphins had a bit of a rough week with five players being released but I thought that the new guys in the team did pretty well.
The game against the Lions was a good opportunity for them to show what they could do in pressure situations and they will only get better thanks to the experience that they would have gained in the match.
Our Pro20 season is over now and it is disappointing not to have made the semis.
We only have ourselves to blame really as we should have won at least two of our matches but we somehow managed to lose them after being in strong positions.
But that is cricket and we just have to move on.
We still have two four-day games to play so we will have to get ourselves up for that and try and end our season on a positive note.
