MS Dhoni: Watch the ball, hit the ball. [Thoughts in the last over] You've spent time, you know the variations. By the 20th over you're almost ready and you swing at everything. It's easier for somebody who has played 10-15 deliveries than someone who has just come in [about running a bye with Rayudu]. We knew there wouldn't be much dew. What we've seen is if there's no dew, there's assistance for spinners. But when we started, Bhajju pa didn't get any turn. But as they started losing wickets, it started spinning, it started turning. Cricket is such a game. 170-180 was a par-plus score. It was a good batting effort after being 60 in ten overs. It's great fun to watch Tahir celebrate. Me and Watson have said we won't follow him, what's the point when we're not 100%. [Stumping] I think it's something that's come from tennis ball cricket. But you still have to do the basics and graduate to that level. If you want to keep like that you can make mistakes; so I still think basics are most important.

MS Dhoni is the Man of the Match.

Ravindra Jadeja: Obviously enjoyed bowling, the way the wicket was turning. I was bowling in good areas and the wicket was doing the rest for me. [Tahir] has been fantastic, taking wickets whenever we needed. Me, Immy bhai and Bhajju pa, as a unit, we are bowling the way we want to bowl. In one word he [Dhoni] is genius. Still one more game to go. We need to continue our momentum. Everyone is in good form so we just need to keep the winnings momentum.

Shreyas Iyer: yeah it's really going to affect us. The way we played was not expected. It's a good reality check. Everybody will be on their toes in the next game. Wouldn't blame the abilities of our team but we didn't play smart cricket. We should have curtailed them [before 180]. Small things we've got to look into and come back strong. I wouldn't blame myself nor my team in this particular matter [ the stumping]. The way he stumped me was lightning. You can't blame yourself. I was looking good and I was going to take them on after that over.

[Rabada] yes we know what abilities he has. He's an amazing bowler especially in the slog overs. For sure we missed. But he had a stiff back, it's good he got to take rest. We're keeping the hope and definitely want to finish in the top two.

CSK: "Dear Super Coach Fleming - As I am suffering from fever kindly grant me permission to leave 30 mins early from work - Thala. Coach - Finish your job early and you are good to go"

Arnie: "How bad is Boult as a batsman?" --- Arnie, he's the only Delhi batsman who didn't get out on a crumbling, collapsing night. Recognise genius when it's in front of you, please.

Ananth: "CSK thumped DC. Wow!!!! no extras were given through the entire innings!!! Simply incredible."

Azweer: "0 EXTRAS From CSK. WHAT A DISCIPLINED BOWLING...!!!"

Kaushik LG: "I think DC spinners not even finishing their quota of overs was a big mistake, after seeing how CSK spinners bowled today."

DoesntMatter: "Rabada/Ishant/Lamichane coming in for Boult/Suchit/Morris if delhi plays chennai for qualifier 1, they will certainly be able to compete and not give away as much as they ended up giving today."

11:13pm That was quick. CSK just using all the momentum they got at the end of the innings, bringing it full magnitude into their bowling and just blowing Capitals out of the water. If the table stays like this at the top, Capitals will have to come back to the site of this murder in some days. And boy will they have a lot to work out.

Sudharsan: "I am looking forward to seeing the Flamingo front foot defense from Boult. Pietersen who?" --- Sudharshan and I booed in unison at that last single.

Akshit V Jain: "Oh Trent Boult batting..... Yummmmm... "

That brings Boult on strike, which is one of my favourite things in cricket. Here we go.
