Mark Wood (Player of the Match):"Definitely. the run ups were a problem due to the dew but got into a rhytm slowly. We practised with the wet ball. Last time I was here was for CSK and didn't go well. Happy to improve from that. ball and did not go into the match. I slipped in the match. But KL was patient and Morne helped me as well. Today I was trying to keep it short and come from a longer run up. It does affect you, if you have to constantly think about the landing area. So, happy to have sorted it out and getting the job done for the team. Happy to help the team win in the end."
KL Rahul (Lucknow Super Giants captain): "Yeah, it was a great start I think. At the initial stage, I said that we were clueless about the pitch as well. We weren't familiar with the conditions. We will take a lot of confidence with this one. Again, the toss is not in our hands, but with the new rule, you get to choose what team you want to go with. It has come in handy.
I felt that we were 25-30 runs above par. The way Kyle batted, took the approach against the spinners, and got us to a good start, was superb. But the way they started in the first three overs, they were about 30-odd runs I think.
The whole group I think. It was Woody's day. he took six [five actually] wickets, which was really well. He made an impact there. It was Woody's day but I think in the end, it was the overall group who did the job.
Obviously, we will take a lot of confidence from it. We will try to take as much off it. This is T20 cricket, and we will try not to overdo it. But yes, we will take the confidence from it."
