Rinku Singh (Player of the Match): "Nothing much. Went in early. Rana bhai said to take it easy. Tough wicket and took the game deep. In domestic cricket, bat at Number 5 and 6 and attack as well. I get power from my muscles. I eat well. Thank you sir. I have put in lot of effort and that is bearing fruit. I am so happy with my performance."

Nitish Rana(Kolkata Knight Riders Skipper): " Yeah, sir, As I said in the toss too, if we do well in the three departments then we can win the match. I think the credit goes to Chandu[Chandrakant Pandit] sir as he said me to take the heavy roller, I was not in favor of that though. I felt the heavy roller might break the pitch, but it went in our way as the pitch settled after the roller was rolled.
I wanna give credit to the spinners. The way they bowled, I was in doubt to give the four overs on a trot to Sunil but he said he will bowl and he scalped a wicket. It's gonna happen, because of the home and away games. I think every team has a home advantage except KKR. We play on good pitches and score 200 and 200+ runs and on the other day, we play on slower pitches, and the scores are low. I think this shows the real quality of the batter to adjust to all the conditions."
