At the post-match presentation, Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant reminisced on the victory and said:
“I think bowlers were very clinical today. We learnt from our mistakes and came out strong today. He (Prithvi Shaw) has been working hard from the last two weeks. We thought it’s time to give him a chance and he flourished today. It will depend on match to match.
Rishabh Pant
He added:
“If Mukesh can bowl in the death it will be great for us. As a cricketer I have to give my hundred percent. I took my time initially as I hadn’t played too many games in the last one and a half years. Every day I love to be on the field. Yes that one and a half years was tough but you have to keep learning from it. The self belief was always there.”
Rishabh Pant
