Presentation:
Sourav Ganguly: "It was good, great cricketing pitch. When you win against a team like Chennai you get
a buzz. Proud of the way the bowlers bowled, Ashish Nehra and Ashok Dinda did a good job. Smith has
improved immensely from what I had seen last."
MS Dhoni: "It was even-steven, but our execution wasn't good, we have struggled in the first six and the
last few overs. Just wanted to check who wanted to bowl, asked YoMi whether he wanted to bowl and he
looked positive, so threw him the ball. That is how you learn."
Jesse Ryder (man of the match): "I wanted to bat through the innings, I wanted to continue with that idea,
Steven Smith made it easy for me to do that. This was a different track to the one we played on in the first
game and made it easy to play the strokes. The home crowd is amazing and they are supporting us well.
Smith did a good job too. I didn't want to throw my wicket away after getting a flier."
