Tejaswi Dahiya (South Delhi Superstarz captain): "(On whether he was happy restricting the Tigers to 168) Definitely, it was a standout performance from the bowlers keeping in mind the conditions which wasn't an easy wicket to bat, so we had to restrict them to a lower score, and we did well.
(On feelings after Anmol's wicket) I felt we had good batting depth, so we wanted to chase it to qualify for a top-two spot. I felt we had the players who could finish the job.
(On Ekansh Dobal) Big man, big show.
(On his own batting performance) I think I just have to bat for a bit longer so that I can finish the gameS for my team. Hopefully in the next matches."

Anmol Sharma (Player of the Match): [on his batting] "The wicket was tacky in the beginning but I knew the dew would make the outfield fast and it will make batting easier. If I stayed till the end, I could take the team home.
[on picking the balls to hit] They also wanted me to play a false stroke, attacking with the frontline spinner. I was clear even if I am not able to go big in the powerplay, I will capitalize in the later overs."
