After
Virat
Kohli
and
Devdutt
Padikkal
gave
them
a
brilliant
start,
the
RCB
suffered
a
middle-order
meltdown
and
managed
only
a
par
for
the
course
157.
Chennai
batters
then
made
a
clinical
chase
to
hunt
the
down
the
target
with
11
balls
to
spare.

serious
beating,

What
they
said
MS
Dhoni
(CSK
Captain):
“We
were
worried
about
the
dew,
so
whenever
there’s
chances
of
dew
we
want
to
bat
second.
They
got
off
to
a
good
start
but
after
ninth
over
wicket
slowed
down.
You
still
had
to
bowl
tight,
and
Jadeja’s
spell
was
important
with
Padikkal
batting
from
one
end.
After
that
Bravo,
Josh,
Shardul,
Deepak
were
brilliant.
It’s
always
on
the
back
of
your
mind
on
which
bowler
can
be
effective
over
here.
I
had
told
Moeen
before
drinks
that
he
would
be
bowling
soon,
but
then
I
decided
Bravo
should
bowl.
The
more
you
delay
Bravo,
the
more
difficult
it
is
since
he
will
end
up
bowling
four
straight
overs
in
these
difficult
conditions.
Our
players
have
worked
hard,
and
they
have
understood
their
roles
and
responsibilities.
Over
here,
the
three
grounds
are
different.
This
is
the
slowest
of
all.
Dubai
and
Abu
Dhabi
are
different.
So,
the
players
have
been
adapting.
Looking
at
the
wicket,
I
felt
left-right
combo
was
important.
We
bat
deep,
we
have
a
lot
of
left-handers,
so
in
the
back
of
the
head
it’s
there.
And
I
feel
all
of
them
are
good
enough
to
play
in
any
position.
That’s
why
we
went
with
the
left-right
combination,
which
may
have
pushed
Raina
and
Rayudu
down.
Bravo
has
turned
up
fit
–
that’s
a
very
good
thing.
And
he
is
executing
well.
I
call
him
my
brother.
We
always
have
fights
over
whether
he
should
bowl
the
slower
ball.
But
I
told
him
that
now
everyone
knows
he
bowls
slower
balls,
so
I
told
him
to
bowl
six
different
balls
in
one
over.
It’s
all
about
bluffing
the
batsmen.
Whenever
he
can,
he
takes
up
responsibilities.”
Dwayne
Bravo
(CSK,
Man
of
the
Match):
“I
just
try
to
be
competitive.
IPL
is
the
toughest
competition
in
the
world.
Some
days
it
works
for
me,
some
days
it
doesn’t.
But
the
pride
and
love
I
have
for
this
game
keeps
me
going.
RCB
are
a
big
side,
and
Virat
is
a
very
good
player,
so
important
to
get
his
wicket.
I
wanted
to
just
keep
it
simple.
There
were
variations,
yorkers,
slower
balls…just
stuck
to
my
basics.
Today
I
bowled
around
the
wicket
and
wide
yorkers,
leg
stump
yorkers.
That
gets
the
batters
thinking
which
way
the
ball
will
go.”
Virat
Kohli
(RCB
captain):
“We
could’ve
got
175,
that
could’ve
been
a
winning
total.
The
pitch
had
a
lot
to
offer
but
our
bowlers
could
not
make
use.
They
got
away
with
too
many
boundary
opportunities.
They
bowled
well
in
their
back
end
and
executed
the
yorkers
when
needed.
It
was
difficult
for
us
to
get
elevation,
and
only
bad
balls
could
be
put
away.
We
then
gave
too
many
boundary
balls.
We
spoke
of
areas
we
didn’t
want
them
to
hit,
but
we
couldn’t
do
that.
The
X-Factor
was
missing
in
the
first
five
overs
with
the
ball.
It’s
very
important
to
execute
balls
during
the
crunch
moments.
Those
few
moments…
that’s
what
we
failed
to
capitalise
on.
We
need
to
get
on
a
winning
run
again.
This
game
is
more
disappointing
than
the
first
one.
We
were
on
top
and
then
gave
it
all
away.”
Ruturaj
Gaikwad
(CSK):
“I
am
happy
with
the
win,
but
not
happy
that
I
couldn’t
finish
the
game.
Opening
partnership
is
always
important,
chasing
or
setting
the
target.
The
new
ball
was
coming
onto
the
bat,
so
wanted
to
play
good
cricket
shots.
“Faf
and
I
compliment
each
other
well.
We
talk
about
when
to
attack,
when
to
rotate
strike,
which
bowler
to
attack.
He
knows
which
bowler
I’ll
go
after
and
vice
versa.”
