Akshar Patel said that the time of Kotla passed for defeat and said that the pitch for batting is better. And he repeated it twice after the match.

Delhi captain said, ‘I think he made his good score. KL played a brilliant innings. And we felt that we were successful in making a good score. Our bowlers tried hard to take wickets, but we were failed to win. He said, ‘The way we batted were very positive for us, but we need to improve our fielding and power-play bowling.
