Sid Monga has the match report ready for perusal here.

Asrar Haque jokes: "I think it was Balaji's 'nephew' who was playing for the last 2 weeks."

Post-match presentation::

van Jaarsveld: "They were like a runaway train today. We have a big match against Delhi on Tuesday, and we need to be up for it."

Gambhir: "I still feel we are a quality side, we put this performance on the field today. When you get 180 in these conditions, you know you have the bowling to defend."

Man of the Match is Debabrata Das: "We started well. I was told to just go out, and play your game." Das can't stop smiling as he receives his prize.

Three teams still with a chance of making the semi-finals in this group - Delhi, Titans and Auckland.

Thanks to everyone for joining us on commentary today. See you all again tomorrow. G'night!
