Gilchrist on Win

On the win: This was the first time we were tested and that gives us more satisfaction. The first two games were a romp while this was a hard earned victory against one of the best sides in the tournament. We struck it out there even when the going was tough and that showed how tough the boys are.
On the team talk during the tactical timeout: The first thing I said was we were four runs ahead at that stage. It is always better to look at only the positives. We knew there would be an opening if we can keep things tight. And things just worked the way we thought it would.
On operating with spin from both ends: It does pay to take the pace of the ball and at the same time there is very little margin for error. Pragyan Ojha showed his class while the part timers struck to their job. This is a small ground where even a mishit can go for a boundary. Any plan to go well has to be followed by proper execution and I am happy the players did just that.
On the turning point: When Sachin got out we knew we could fight back. Having said that Mumbai is not only about Sachin, they have great balance in their side but his wicket was the one that put us back on the road. Duminy batted with flair and showed what he is capable of. We had to earn Sachin’s wicket by creating a plan. Once we snapped a few wickets and kept things tight we had the upper hand.
On R.P. Singh and Fidel Edwards: They have good experience and they have expectedly led from the front. They have laid the platform in each game for the rest of the attack to come in consolidate.
On the effort in the field: That is an area we have put a lot of effort and it clearly showed we have improved. Saving runs and holding on to catches is an essential ingredient to succeed in this format. Of the areas we identified to improve at the start of the season, fielding was on top and the hard work is paying of.

Hey Gilly. You are the best captain and an excellent cricketer. You have been my favourite always. I just love the way you bat. Your aggression is too good. A good leader is the one who leads from the front. You are a good leader. Wish you all the best. Play well and be the IPL 2 Champions.
