Arun Karthik(Nellai Royal Kings, Skipper): " Yeah really happy with the win, I felt the wicket was easy to bat on. Yeah, the sweep shot is my go-to shot against the left-arm spinners. It's easy to communicate with the players actually they are the ones who motivate me to score the runs. Thanks to management as they have given the respective roles to all the players. The moral is really high as we chased down the total easily."
N Jagadeesan (Chepauk Super Gillies, captain): "The way we played was not good. Probably we could have gotten 20 more. Critically, we can improve the fielding. In terms of smartness, we can improve overall. We can always come back and fight for the title."
Player of the Match award goes to Arun Karthik!!!
Lakshay Jain (Nellai Royal Kings): "Wicket was holding a bit, I tried to purchase off it. It's not everyone's day in T20. Our bowlers bowled well. we executed our plans well."
