Stay tuned for more action from around the world!
Harshal Patel (Player of the Match): "Pretty pleasing. We have been trying to do it in the last 4-5 games. Some of the pieces were missing. For all of it to come together when we need to win every single game, it's pretty special.
I think I found it pretty quickly that keeping the wickets in play was crucial. To play horizontal bat was difficult.
I was trying to bowl length to him (MS Dhoni). Sometimes, it's one of those days when you try one thing and it goes the other way. Pretty happy to see the ball go in hand.
100%. For me, having the family around me is the biggest blessing I have. It allows me to switch off and it allows me to see the bigger picture. The moment I step out of the room, all I'm thinking is cricket and how best I can perform for the team. The moment I step in the room, I'm thinking about being a good father and a good husband."

Pat Cummins (Sunrisers Hyderabad Captain): "That was great. Few things came together tonight. Boys played well and good to see few more smiles in the team.
I thought it was pretty clinical. CSK had talented batters at the top who wanted to take the game on. Boys shifted to defensive bowling and then used the conditions really well throughout the innings. Really impressed.
(On promoting Klaasen and demoting NKR) Yeah it was a strategy. Particularly in these conditions we knew that they are going to throw spin at us. So, we wanted to send Klaasen up top and then change the role a little bit for Nitish. We gave him the finishers role tonight.
I think our record against CSK isn't great. It's good to fix that tonight. We have 5 games left in the season so we want to give a crack at it.
I think we want to finish off games more clinically but it's nice to get over the line tonight."
