Ravindra Jadeja: I was enjoying my bowling. There was a lot of turn on the surface. I was just trying to bowl in good areas, and the wicket was doing the rest for me. Tahir has been fantastic throughout the season. He has taken wickets for us whenever we needed. Me, Immibhai (Tahir) and Bhajju have done well, and as a bowling unit, we need to put a lot of effort into our bowling and our the skills. We applied ourselves quite well. In one word, MS Dhoni is a genius. We still have one more game, and we need to continue the momentum. Everyone is in good form, and we need to take it one game at a time.

MS Dhoni, Man of the Match: They will stop eventually because they want to listen what I say (When the crowd were chanting 'Dhoni, Dhoni'). I watch the ball and hit the ball. I think by 20th over you are almost ready and you swing at everything. It's easier for somebody who has played 10 or 15 deliveries than somebody who has just come in bat. It was holding on a bit, it wasn't coming on nicely. I felt it was slightly difficult for Rayudu to hit. Rishabh helped me, he didn't take his gloves off and that helped me a bit (to sneak in the bye). We knew there won't be much dew on the field. Once we started our innings of bowling, Bhajju pa didn't get much turn initially. But as they kept losing wickets, it slowed down a bit and the spinners got more turn. I felt it was a good wicket, 170-180 was a par-plus score. It's great fun to watch him (Tahir) celebrate. We have made it very clear to him that me and Watson are never coming to him because more often that not, when he gets a wicket, he runs to the other side. With me and Watson, it's quite difficult since we are not 100 percent fit. So, we just say very well done and go back to our positions. The good thing is he finishes the lap quickly and comes back to bowl. It's something that has come from tennis ball cricket (When asked about his glovework). Still you need to do the basics right and then graduate to the next level. If you want to keep like that, you may commit a lot of mistakes. It's important to stick to the basics. I don't know (If asked he has the fastest hands in the game). For me it's a very good talking point for the next league game. It's a bit of a demotion, I thought they will retain me. I will have to go and talk to the owners, ask if I will get retained or not. But I am not going to tell the trade secret. I have always said it's very special to get that kind of a nickname. It's a big nickname that they have given me. It feels really special. I didn't realize that it was part of the first CSk song. The way I got accepted and the whole of Tamil Nadu -- don't call my name, they call me 'Thala'. It's very nice and they have always supported us.
