22:50 hrs IST: Jasprit Bumrah (Man of the Match): I tried to assess the wicket. Tried to learn from whatever I saw in the first innings. On this wicket, I thought it’s a big ground and it’s on the slower side, so back of a length deliveries and slower balls worked well.
22:49 hrs IST: Virat Kohli: Bumrah and Nehra were outstanding in the end. To defend 40 in five overs with dew present is outstanding. Nehra is an experienced performer, he knows what to do. Bumrah was asking me what to do every ball. It was an outstanding innings from Rahul on a pitch where shot-making was difficult.
22:45 hrs IST: Eoin Morgan: Didn’t start the over well. A decision went against us. Fair play to Bumrah to produce a match winning over. These last two games, we’ve been right on the money with the ball. All credit to the bowlers.
22:38 hrs IST: Jasprit Bumrah: It’s always tough to bowl in the death. I tried to remember the past where I’ve done well in such situations.
22:35 hrs IST: Ashish Nehra: The only thing on my mind was to give as many runs to Jasprit (to defend) . One bad ball, one good shot and it would have been over. Hats off to the way Jasprit bowled the last over. We know how good a bowler he is with the old ball.
