That's all from this game. Thank You for tuning in.

Sanju Samson: [On his batting] The way I play the format, I do take a few balls to settle in, but mainly it is just to go out and express myself and get those 40-50 runs at a high strike rate, with Jos doing the other role of taking the innings deep. The roles are very clear. If we do those roles, it is very normal to get few dismissals like this but I'll try to keep going. [Catch] It was a very funny moment. Just before the catch, I just felt I will take something like that. You get that feel. I just got that feel that I am going to catch it, and very next second it happened. [On his spinners] Last game that we played here, it was like a swimming pool and we were struggling to maintain the dryness. With the dew coming in, we will be playing a lot of night games and will have to get used to it and the wet ball. We have that experience in Yuzi and Ash in the middle overs. [On Ashwin] He reads the batters very well. He is always looking at the batters and getting the hints. They had a lot of left-handers and bowling Ash bhai a few overs were crucial.

David Warner: I'll give that back [Orange] cap in a heartbeat for a couple of wins. When you are chasing 200, you got to start well in the powerplay and unfortunately, once again we lost early wickets. Can't take the credit from how good a bowler Trent Boult is in the powerplay and he bowled extremely well. It was always going to be a challenge to come out here and chase 200 with early wickets in the powerplay. It is just about executing your skills and when you are getting out early like that; we had a couple of chop-ons last game. We are professional athletes, and have to go back in the nets. It's about executing, and hopefully we can regroup. It's always difficult when we are losing wickets at the other end. It is frustrating. I have been hitting a lot of the fielders of late, but I will keep going out there and back myself. 175-180 was par there.

Technical difficulties in the form of faulty microphone equipment have interfered with the host broadcaster from being able to do the post-match presentation. That'll do it for our live coverage from this contest. Be sure to flip over to the commentary feed for the second half of today's IPL doubleheader as Mumbai Indians are moments away from the first ball facing Chennai Super Kings.
