Harbhajan Singh (Winning Captain): "Not too bad. We are getting the right result. Well, once we finished with our bowling, we got an idea of how to play and how not to. We wanted to make sure that we won the game on a priority basis.
He is very good with the ball; he has proven everyone wrong that it doesn't matter whether there is a left-hander or a right-hander. (On Praveen Gupta's spell) It's good to have a laugh in the end.
We need to make sure to have a good time together and then come back stronger."

Shikhar Dhawan (Losing Captain): "Hard loss. I think both the teams tried to target the powerplays, but they outdid us in both the powerplays. Yeah, we still are left with some hope (talking about making it to the knockouts). Chris Gayle was brilliant, (but) he will be batting at number 3. I won't be moving from the opening positions (chuckles)."
