Sam Curran (Player of the Match): "Really pleased. Amazing way to start the tournament. Nothing better than beginning with a victory at home. I wanted to take it deep. It's all about taking risks. (On being handed a lifeline) You need some luck to go your way. The ball was traveling well. Not much spin. The ball was coming on nicely from the pacers."
Sam Curran is the Player of the Match
Shikhar Dhawan (Punjab Kings Captain): "Yeah, it feels great. I was happy to be on the ground and I've been preparing for this tournament, actually, after the last IPL, this IPL I'm playing such a highly competitive cricket, so I was a bit nervous as well.
[After last over's 25 runs] I didn't chat with anyone because I was supposed to go for the batting and bowlers go through their own emotions, so I would rather let them in their own space. And once things get calmed down, then we go and chat. And we got tomorrow, so we'll chat tomorrow and learn to get better.
I felt that we leaked a few extra runs and of course, it's the first match, so nerves are there and that's normal and it's fine. I feel that under the light, the wicket played better and we got off to a good start. And then Sam played an amazing inning and then Liam finished it nicely. It is a new ground, so the focus was on using our brains and assessing the field."
