Quotes

Dwayne Smith (Man of the Match): I wanted to stay out there and I know I can get the big hits. The ball came on nice, it was a good track. We had to back ourselves. Basically we try to encourage each other, if something goes wrong we knows we can make up. All in all it was a very good chase for us. Yes I am sure, we have a great team, we can go from strength to strength from here. 

MS Dhoni: We played good cricket today. We gave away too many runs in the last few overs. The rain helped us, that made it difficult for the Delhi bowlers. We need to improve. With that rain, it made it slightly easy for us. What is important is to back yourself to play the shots you can play. McCullum and Smith back themselves and they don't try what they don't have in their armoury. Raina batted well too. We have to improve on our bowling. If we get flat wickets, we struggle in the death. Mohit shows lot of promise, he is doing very well. He has bowled well over all. 

Kevin Pietersen: We lost a bit of momentum when the rain came. They batted beautifully. As I said in the toss we are getting close to a win. When the rain came, the ball came nicely to the bat but we are not going to make any excuses. No one is to blame anyone else here. We have to win most of our games now but I still believe we can make it
