Shahbaz Ahmed (Player of the Match): "You can call me anything today. The captain and coach asked me we can have you as per the situation. We had a collapse so I was used.

To be honest when I was batting I got a feeling that the ball is stopping. When Avesh and Sandeep were bowling, I thought there was some purchase.

Feeling very proud to win the award in a big game. Have enjoyed the journey, our team's atmosphere has been relaxed. We will celebrate only after winning the final. We will just relax tonight."
PLAYER OF THE MATCH: SHAHBAZ AHMED
Pat Cummins (Sunrisers Hyderabad Captain): "Yeah, hundred percent. The boys have been fantastic throughout the season. There has been a great vibe in the dressing room and you can see that. The final was the goal and we have made it.

We knew our strength was our batting. But we wouldn't underestimate the experience in the side. The guys like Bhuvi, Natarajan and Unadkat keep stepping up.

(On who's decision was it to bring Shahbaz Ahmed as impact sub) It was Daniel Vettori. He wants as many left-arm spinners as possible.

(On Abhishek Sharma's bowling) That was a surprise. Travis Head went out with a couple of right-handed batters. But he did really well in the middle overs.

The finals are always funny. You never know. With 170 on the board, after a couple of wickets, things really turn.

(On knowing where the dew arrives and where not) I really don't look to understand these things.

It is. For the whole franchise and to everyone involved, it is a great moment and hopefully, we will go all the way."
Most Dot Balls Bowled in the Match: T Natarajan (13 dots) Shahbaz too bowled 13 dot balls but Natarajan had a better economy rate.
