That is it from today's double header. Attack from outer space in Bangalore followed by a dawdle in Delhi. Good night

Harmeet Singh is the Man of the Match. Harmeet: "There was little pressure as it was my first game of the season and bowling to Viru bhai on his home ground. I was trying to bowl stump to stump. Two wins in a row is a good boost to our team."

Adam Gilchrist: "Guys bowled well and batted well in patches, tried to boost the run-rate which cost us few wickets. The wicket yesterday looked like it had more moisture but today it had dried out. Hussey did not turn it much but he bowled really well. If you can hang on to tough catches like Awana, it can change the game. Harmeet used the seam-up bowling very well."

Mahela Jayawardene: "We have to be honest to ourselves, it was 140-15 par score, we had to put runs on the board for the bowlers to put pressure. We have to balance the team with bit of batting and bowling. We are getting starts but not getting what we need. We have to believe in ourselves, we have another eight games, we need to have a good run, we have to keep fighting."

Miller winning another chase for KXIP but Delhi's innings never got going and 120 was never going to be enough on this pitch, which played alright considering the venue's reputation for slow and low

madhu: "David Miller - this innings has shown his other side"

Harsh: "I think DD is playing wrong here. Their pitches this year are not inducive for shot making and their batting is dependent on shot makers. Look at pitches in Bangalore, it does give RCB batsman opportunity to play their shots all round."
