“Happy to complete the league round with a win. This pitch was one of the toughest pitches I have ever played on to bat first. When we came back to play after the rain, the pitch looked like the fifth day pitch of the Ranchi ground. I told this to Mitchell Santner. In the last six matches, our batsmen have played with great intent. The strike rate was also excellent. Dhoni was on the field when the target was a little closer. I thought he had done this successfully several times. We tried to change our bowling with the wet ball.

I would like to give the Man of the Match award to Yash Dayal. The way he bowled was incredible. he deserves it. I told him not to face the ball too much before the last over. I told him to have confidence in his abilities. Tried a yorker on the first ball. He limited the innings in the subsequent balls. It bore fruit. We wanted to give a 'lap of honour' to the support our viewers have shown us. Our first target is to reach the knock-out round. It is important to experience this at this time. But we have to return to our work tomorrow.

Last over bowled by Yash Dayal: CSK needed 35 runs in the last over to win this match. That over was bowled by Yash Dayal. He took the wicket of Dhoni for just 7 runs. His performance in the last over was 6, wickets, 0, 1, 0, 0.
