I have been waiting for this, no better feeling than this for a bowler. It (pitch) felt it was similar to what I saw from outside in the first game. There was good carry, there was some movement at the start too. It's a great surface to play cricket on. It was something which we planned in our meetings, we wanted not to give them the extra bit of pace all the time. Their batsmen were all playing with hard hands. It came out well for us today. I'd love to chase it in 10 overs (chuckles), but I'm not batting, will leave it up to the batsmen.

After losing four wickets inside 7 overs, Rishabh Pant (51) and Lalit Yadav (20) added 51 runs for the fifth wicket to rebuild the Delhi Capitals innings. But regular wickets made sure that DC did not score runs freely.
