Mumbai: It was a night to remember for Ruturaj Gaikwad and his Chennai Super Kings side as they beat Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede by 20 runs on Sunday. Following the incredible win in the front of a packed house at the Wankhede, CSK captain Ruturaj was at his hilarious best as he referred to MS Dhoni as ‘young wicketkeeper’. He said the runs from the young wicketkeeper helped us a lot. Dhoni hit a hattrick of sixes in the final over to help CSK post 206 for four in 20 overs.

“The young wicketkeeper scoring those three sixes helped us a lot, that proved to be the difference. We needed those 10-15 extra runs for this kind of venue. In the middle phase, Bumrah bowled really well,” Ruturaj said at the post-match presentation.

Hailing Matheesha Pathirana, Ruturaj called the pacer 'Malinga'.

“I feel we were spot on with our execution with the ball despite them scoring some great shots. I would have taken 6 overs 60 at the powerplay. You need to be on the mark with bowling and batting at this venue. Our Malinga bowled really well today, he nailed those yorkers. Not to forget, Tushar and Shardul also did well,” Ruturaj added.

“I think we need to keep it simple, encourage all to be in a good headspace and continue the same way. Jinks was carrying a bit of a niggle, so thought it was better for him to open. I’m fine batting anywhere, plus it is the added responsibility as the team captain,” he concluded.
