Charith Asalanka (Sri Lanka Captain): "It was a fabulous game. We handled the game pretty nicely until Kuldeep and Varun bowled 2 good overs. They got good, experienced bowlers but Nissanka and Perera batted really well.
I asked them to score as many runs to get in the Super Over. We have been playing very good cricket but unfortunately we couldn't manage it in the last 2 games."

Suryakumar Yadav (India Captain): "It felt like a final (laughs). Well, the boys showed a lot of character after the first half in the second innings. I told them to play this game as a Semi-Final. Let's bring everyone together. Have good energy and it was good to be on the winning side.
Obviously. To have that start and the way Sanju & Tilak batted, taking the tempo ahead from where Abhishek left was good to see. I think Sanju not opening, going down the order, taking that responsibility and even Tilak playing a fine knock as he too showed a lot of responsibility. It was really good to see.
I think Arshdeep has been in that situation for a long time. He has delivered for us in the last 2-3 years. I only told him to back his own players and not to think about anything else. It's okay we are already in the finals but I just told him to try and execute.
(Super Over Performance from Arshdeep) Absolutely. He has been there in that situation. I have seen him doing this for India and also for the IPL franchise. His confidence says it all. It was none other than Arshdeep to bowl that super over.
(On Sunday) First of all, let's have a good recovery tonight. Let's not think about that. Many sports science team is there to take care of everyone. Few boys had a lot of cramps today as it was hot. But we will have a good recovery day tomorrow and we will turn up the same way as we turned up today.
I mean, what I wanted from the boys just trying to execute their plans, be clear and not to fear. It was really important and I am sure everyone got what they wanted. We are really happy to be in the Finals."
