who said what?
Pat Cummins, SRH (losing captain)
Abhinav and Classes we found in a good clan, but we could not meet through this innings. The ship needs a man to really stabilize. (On the pitch) You have to build your innings here, if you face some balls you can catch. (On competition in IPL) The difference between our first game where we found 280 odd and then we rolled on the same surface. In T20, margin is also very low, you need to perform on the given day. (On the road ahead) We now have some sports sports, it will be about assessing each wicket as soon as possible. In a few days all this will be attacked, in a few days it will be about weighing our options.
Hardik Pandya, MI (winning captain)
It is good to win behind our back. Glad that boys are taking speed correctly. Rohit, lamp, bowlt, sky, everyone, always felt that once everyone started clicking, it is going to be a complete combination, a wonderful victory overall. The captaincy is sometimes about the instinct, I like to watch and react to the game and do not always trust pre-made plans. (Bowling on Puthur) At that time, we wanted them to take a chance and give us a wicket. The young man, did not play some games, was difficult for him and I understand. We can be better in all departments, we discussed about being very clinical and very smart. We will take it by game. We are very satisfied with this victory.
Trent Bowlt, Match players
It is just good to contribute to a good victory. Good game for us. It was amazing to limit them to a good score in their home conditions. Just wanted to hit the wicket and wanted to play a good shot to the batsmen, trying to keep it simple and pressurize the batsmen. It is good to see some catches held today. I would like to bowl four in a line and let it swing it but it is not always the case. Whenever I am called, one needs to be ready. This year a little different role for me. This is a low percentage ball for me, but as some old bowlers say, nothing can beat a good yorker. I still like competition and feeling of getting wickets. This is a very big tournament, there are hundreds of thousands of bowlers who love to do what we are doing so it's about not taking it.
