Somerset fast bowler Josh Davey:
“What a partnership that was between Sean and James. There was definitely a few of us wondering of it might be a recurrence of what happened to us in the 2021 final but that partnership was one of the best I’ve ever seen.
“Playing under that kind of pressure on Finals Day, and for Rewy on his Finals day debut to put in a performance like that it shows the talent that he has.
“It definitely felt like a new-ball pitch. Dan Worrall managed to swing the ball, which is one of the best assets you can have in the powerplay, but as the ball became softer it became harder to score and we bowled brilliantly through the middle part of their innings to haul them back.
“When Lewis Gregory got their two England boys out it completely changed the momentum of the game.”
Surrey skipper Chris Jordan:
“We would have bowled first on that pitch as well but we got off to a pretty good start with the bat and, with the wicket being a little bit tacky we felt it was a score we would have taken if you’d offered it to us.
“The way the boys started in the powerplay, to knock over three of their key players, we were in a good position but you have to give credit to Dickson especially. It would have been easy to come out and rebuild in a more conventional fashion but he took a punt and it came off.
“After that it was tough to stop them. In between boundaries, he was rotating the strike really well. The way they played the spin made it tough for me in particular.
“I don’t want to make any excuses because we had players missing. Any eleven that we put out as a club we would back 100% and I fully trusted the players that we put out. It has been a tough week but that’s part of cricket.”
