Yuvraj Singh is the Man of the Match: Felt really good to hit the ball sweetly, it was a slow wicket, and Dhoni complimented me really well. I had to adjust to this wicket, but the trick was to play the ball on its merit. Looking forward to playing in front of my home crowd at Mohali.

Dhoni: Yuvraj made it easy for me in the middle, the dew played its part as well. We wanted to take the game till the end and target the part-timers, in the end it worked for us. It would have been good had Yuvi stayed till the end. Everyone bowled well on this wicket, very happy with the contribution of everyone. The wicket was ugly, and if there wasn’t any dew, 220 would have been a tough total to chase. We would like to keep the winning momentum going at Mohali.

Ponting: We were in a good position when India were 3 down, but Yuvraj and Dhoni made batting look easy on a pretty tough wicket. 230 looked a par score, but I still feel we could have batted well in the middle overs. We were done in by the dew as well, but can’t do much about it, we were totally outplayed.
