KL Rahul said after the match "It's a little sad because a victory would have been sweet. However, we have a lot of games ahead of us, so hopefully, we can come back stronger and win a couple of them. Right now, it appears to be 10-15 runs short, but 190-odd looked fine to me. On this wicket, Mayank and I felt 180-190 would have been ideal. Congratulations to Shikhar and his teammates for batting well. Bowling second is always a challenge when we visit Wankhade. We have plans in place to deal with certain situations. When you're up against these high-caliber hitters, it's not easy. That is not because I am on the wrong end of the argument. Bowlers attempt to bowl with a wet ball, but this is still difficult. I requested that the umpires change the ball a couple of times because it was wet, but the rule book forbids it."
Marcus Stoinis, who finished the game with a boundary and won it for Delhi Capitals, said "It's great to be in the game, and winning is crucial for us. Even though it is still early in the season, every game here feels vital. We were trying to keep them under 250 at the 10-over stage, and we did well to keep them under 200. The emphasis is always on getting off to a good start, followed by the simple cliches of cricket - good partnerships, and then leaving the finishing to the finishers. Shikhar is fantastic; he's maintained his form from last year and is hungry for runs. He had such a strong start to the season two games ago, and he's continued that trend today."
Rishabh Pant, the winning captain, when asked about the win here today said "Coming from a loss, winning the next match was important. Have already started enjoying captaincy. But we were under pressure at the start, the wicket was not doing much. Bowlers did a good job keeping them to 190. What he's (Dhawan) giving to the team is commendable. Want to keep it light so people can enjoy their" cricket.
Shikhar Dhawan, the man of the match, told that It was a deliberate effort on his part. He realized that he needed to work on the strike rate with which he bats. He began to take more chances. Change is something he is not afraid of, and he is always open to it. he is not afraid of going out either. He said that he has been working on a few shots. His slog shot has vastly improved. It was there before, but now he is able to play it more openly. After so many years of playing, he is more at ease.
