Ashok Menaria (Rajasthan Captain): "Yes, we wanted to win the toss and chase and glad we did that. Bowling was great from us. Fielding energy was great and it supported us a lot to the bowlers. That partnership was key. We built a good partnership and then Ankit was great. Yes, we lost our way and happy to win in the end. Happy to qualify for the semi-finals. Big game coming our way and hope to do well there. Have areas to work on."
Yuzvendra Chahal (Player of the match): "Nothing sir. The wicket looked like a 350+ wicket. The fast bowlers bowled and it looked it was stopping. So, bowled straight lines and got rewards. No plan as such just kept things simple and varied my pace a bit. I think I back my strengths and deliver the balls accordingly. Yes, definitely. The team, is playing well as well. We have a batting depth. I think we have good chances of winning the trophy. Ankit's innings was great. We have batting depth and batting at Number 10. So, that was good to see. Thank You."
Player of the match- Yuzvendra Chahal
Sudip Gharami (Bengal Captain): "We lost wickets at regular intervals and lacked partnerships and that's why we lost the game. The ball was moving. The new ball moved but the bowlers bowled well. The batters let us down a bit. The batters were getting set and then getting out. That was the issue. We were under par in the end. Shahbaz scored well and he kept us in the game. We tried to take wickets and I am proud that we tried our best to win this game."
