Presentation

Kieron Pollard is the MOM: "Really proud of how I did in front of this crowd. It just takes one special performance from me, but hats off to the rest of the team for setting it up by the time I came in to bat."

Sachin Tendulkar: "Very pleased with the crowd. We have enjoyed playing all the home games. It's really special. As long as we keep winning, the orange cap doesn't matter. While doing that if it stays with me, all the better. I knew Kieron was just one knock away from turning it on, and today's innings was the single most important he has played in the IPL so far. Remarkable effort. I was never in doubt [that others apart from me are performing too]. People questioned me, but I was never in doubt.

Gautam Gambhir: "We were looking at 165, but those 20 extra runs turned the game. Had we been chasing 160 and with the start we got, we would have cruised through. We need to win both the games now, we can't be complacent. And we need to play well. No option, but picking ourselves up and playing well."

Finally it is over. The game has been technically dead since the 12th over, only now has it been clinically declared so. And Mumbai, who were through to semis beyond any reasonable doubt, are now through beyond unreasonable doubt too. And Delhi have got into a rut here, with three losses in a row. And run-outs have been central to all three of them. After having looked like a champion side, Delhi are now one of the crowd, and they have deserved it. As of now, there are four teams tied at 12 points from 12 games, and after the game later tonight, there will be five. Talk about fight to the finish. Stay with us for the presentation
