10:45 PM IST, Local Time: Back-to-back sixes from Ramsingh and Sonu Yadav, and he finishes things in style! Nellai Royal Kings seal a six-wicket win with 14 balls to spare, making it two wins in two matches.
Baba Indrajith (Dindigul Dragons Captain): "[On the positives from this game] Vimal played a good innings. We though, we should get around 180. If we had 180-185 runs on the board, things could have been different.
[On their batting] See powerplay is key. You have to win it, and only when you do that, you can control the middle phase. But overall, a low-scoring game, proud of the fight shown by the team.
[Mood in the dugout] More than the result, it is important whether everyone executed their plans or not. If they did, it gives us a better chance to win. We will try and do that."

Ramsingh Sonu Yadav (POTM and Nellai Royal Kings Captain): "[On winning two games on the bounce] Yeah, it feels good. Actually, we were trying to finish this quickly as run-rate could come into play in the later half of the tournament.
[On his first year as captain] Catches can go down in cricket but if we end up winning the game, it is all good. We will work on our fielding.
[On his all-round show] Yeah, as a captain. It is important for me to lead from the front either with the ball or with the bat and that's what I tried to do.
[On bowling first] The wicket looked a little tricky and that's why we opted to bowl first. But the way Mukilesh batted, he closed out the game for us on a tricky surface."
