“Not bad, to be honest. Very happy with the way everyone is stepping up on the right occasion. With the kind of attack we have, we thought we might be 10-15 runs short sometimes but with the attack we have, we can restrict them to 20-25 runs short. That over from Lockie changed the momentum,” said Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya in the post-match presentation ceremony. Despite the victory, Panya believes that his team could have done better and put some more runs on the board while batting. “To be honest, I felt we were 10-15 runs short. I thought par was 185, to be honest. When Rishabh was there, I thought the game was in the balance,” said Hardik Pandya.

Pacer Varun Aaron could only bowl one over in the match and was taken off the attack and to cover up for his three overs, Pandya had to give the ball to all-rounder Vijay Shankar and Rahul Tewatia and they conceded 36 runs in the three overs bowled between them. Varun [Aaron] felt something happened to him. We were one bowler short so we had to finish the game on the 19th over. The courage Tewatia and Vijay showed, when they had not been told to bowl, they stepped up and helped us to win the game,” said Pandya.
