Quotes from presentation
"Bala had a tough day today, other wise we were in the game" says Gautam Gambhir. "But this things happen. Sometimes you can't hold on to the momentum. It was a good wicket. One of us had to bat through. If one of our top four got 70, we would have won. A lot of credit goes to Irfan and Morne, and all Delhi fast bowlers. Today was a bit embarrassing."
"We wanted to start the tournament well, be aggressive," says Mahela Jayawardene. "Everybody showed that. Unmukt batted really well. He showed a lot of maturity. We were probably 10-15 short, but the bowlers came along superbly. Useful attack in these conditions, but we still have to do the job everyday. Very good start, but we have to keep it going."
"Came out really nicely," says MoM Irfan Pathan. "Getting wickets early on is nice. Credit should go the batsmen. They played really well, especially Unmukt. Swinging is my strength. I am trying to get better every day. Good tracks. Slightly uneven today. Any bowler will want to bowl here."
A huge win for Delhi Daredevils here. This will also boos their net run rate should it come down to net run rate. There are huge fireworks at the ground. Certainly more fireworks than in the KKR innings. Hopefully all those batsmen who were hit in the fingers and in ribs are fine
