Jasprit Bumrah is Man of the Match Kohli: It's important to have belief. It was a case of us executing really well initially. Bumrah and Nehra were outstanding in the end. To defend 40 in five overs with dew present is outstanding. Chahal bowled well. Mishra was outstanding as well. Raina bowled four for us so we didn't have to bowl Pandya with the wet ball. Initially Nehra was brilliant with the new ball. Removed both openers. Strong character shown by the side, something I am proud of. Nehra is an experienced performer, he knows what to do. Bumrah was asking me what to do every ball. Just told him to back his skills. Even if it goes for a six, you still wake up tomorrow. It's not the end of the world. It was an outstanding innings from Rahul on a pitch where shot-making was difficult. He's one player who has all the shots in the book. He nominates areas that he wants to hit in and hits proper shots. It's like my second home, can't wait to go there (Bengaluru). All to play for in the last game. We'll try to be more expressive. Some things we need to tighten up but all in all a very good performance. Morgan: We were in the driving seat right up until the last over. Needing 8 runs, you probably win the game 99 times out of 100. Didn't start the over well. A decision went against us. Losing the 'in' batsman cost us. Fair play to Bumrah to produce a match winning over. We bowled very well to back up our previous performance with the ball. These last two games, we've been right on the money with the ball on wickets which don't suit us. All credit to the bowlers. We never let the rate get away from us in the chase. Root and Stokes played well. We were right up with the rate until the end. Unbelievably disappointing to lose this game. Got to take it on the chin. It's extremely competitive. Two teams not giving each other an inch and not giving any leeway to maneuvre. All down to Bengaluru now.
