That is all from this game. Good night

Robin Uthappa is the Man of the Match. Uthappa: "Needed to get myself in, it was a good wicket, initially was doing a bit. Manish bats the best when he plays freely, he has been hitting it really well last couple of weeks. Losing wickets in the first six overs, the ball was doing a bit, I understood I needed to hold one end up, I knew once Manish got it, he would play the big shots. The dew factor made it a bit difficult for our bowlers."

Gautam Gambhir: "Was important not to be complacent. We have been chasing last few games, wanted to let our batters with freedom without scoreboard pressure. Guys took responsibility. With dew it was getting tough for spinners. We wanted to put our bowlers under pressure as well."

Manish Pandey: "The wicket was good, there was a little movement off it at the start. There was one partnership needed, I and Robin had a discussion, and eventually it came off well. We have played a lot of cricket together, we know each other's gameplans."

Morne van Wyk: "We had opportunities to apply skills, got ourselves where we could have nailed down a couple of games, but could not. Tonight was another opportunity. Some of us had never seen these bowlers, never played on these grounds. Back home, you play against the same guys often, and have a good idea what you are doing. We played against teams used to their conditions. Home advantage. Tough cricket, learned a lot, we will be taking back a lot to South Africa. We are not going to let these losses affect our winning culture. We have a winning culture, character, a very good team and something we are proud of."

Narine playing his part in the 13th successive win for KKR with quick wickets when Dolphins were counterattacking. KKR's streak is now the longest for an Indian T20 side, and it is only the second time out of those 13 victories that they have won batting first.
