Irfan Pathan(Legend of the Match and Konark Suryas Odisha Captain): "I knew the pitch had some grip in it. When I got hit for a maximum, I tried to go for a seam up delivery. I got hit on my body while batting as it was getting extra bounce. Richard Levi came up cunningly and if he had not done that, the game would have gone to super over.
When I pulled my muscle, I decided to push Vinay ahead. In the first game versus Manipal, I bowled the last over. I was clear and used my experience.
When Rikki Clarke took 26 from that over, I told everybody that the game is not over yet. In the last group game, I got angry with everyone. See somebody have to step up to cheer the other guys. See Nadeem now, Navin Stewart now and even Pravin Tambe, everybody did their best. When everyone started believing, it was an easy going.
We had lot of challenges in the team. Three main batters left the team in the middle of the tournament and we lacked something. We had to do everything with that limitation.
Whenever I come to Kashmir, I get love and most importantly respect from everyone in the local. Thanks to all of them for the support. Hopefully we will do well in the final which is in two days time."

Legend of the Match: Irfan Pathan
Dependable Player of the Match: Shahbaz Nadeem
Gurkeerat Singh Mann (Toyam Hyderabad Captain)- "Yeah, I wasn't expecting the final ball in that way from Irfan but I felt that I could hit that one. Once Rikki had gotten that massive over we felt we could have capitalized. However T20 is a tough format and these things happen. Rikki almost got us through and it was a great knock from him. The whole group believed that we were playing good cricket. We have had these last over finishes and unfortunately we didn't hold our nerves this time."

Cracker of a game out here!!!!!! Irfan Pathan sets off for a celebratory run. He has pulled out an impossible defence in the last three balls. Entire KSO team comes running and roars in delight. It's the captain who has stepped up at the most crucial juncture of the game and gave his side the victory by the thinnest of margins.
19.6 I Pathan to Mann
0 SWING AND A MISS!! And with that the Konark Suryas Odisha are into the finals! It was full and wide outside off stump. Gurkeerat Mann went for the big shot over extra cover but he didn't connect. The keeper was standing up to the stumps and Richard Levi didn't allow Mann any chance to run a bye. The Konark Suryas Odisha win this one by just one run.
2 runs from the last ball! 1 will take the game to super over and 2 for victory for Toyam Hyderabad. Irfan Pathan is making some changes to the field and is ready to bowl.
19.5 I Pathan to S Binny
1 Full and around the line of off stump. Binny goes for a big swing and he gets it towards cover. He will scamper across for a single.
Stuart Binny walks out to bat at number 8.
Irfan Pathan says this game is not over yet! He gets rid of Shinwari and the equation is down to 3 runs from 2 balls.
19.4 I Pathan to S Shinwari
W YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING MEE!! It was full and around the line of off stump. Shinwari tried to go for a big heave and he mistimed that one. It held in the air for a while before Stewart held on to it by running a few steps backwards from cover. The sixth wicket goes down and the Toyam Hyderabad still need 3 runs to win from two balls.
