Presentation Ceremony & Reactions
Sameer Rizvi | Player of the Match (90 off 51): "Yes sir, I have worked very hard on myself. I worked on all my weaknesses, especially against fast bowlers. The hard work is paying off. When a player is in the zone, he sees the ball differently. I always try to play according to the situation – at the start I took time, then once settled I played my shots. Watching the ball till the end has helped."
Axar Patel | DC Captain (translated): "Flexibility is very important in T20 cricket. If you have players who can adapt anywhere, you can use them accordingly. It’s about being open-minded. We have a strong bench – Sameer’s clarity of role makes us a title contender. We won’t repeat last year's mistakes, taking one game at a time."
Suryakumar Yadav | MI Stand-in Captain: "We were 15-20 runs short. I don't want to take credit away from their bowlers. Sameer Rizvi never let us come into the game – at 7 for 2, the way he batted was incredible. We'll go back to the drawing board and come back stronger."
Expert View – Joy Bhattacharyya: "Rizvi's role clarity has made Delhi a title contender. On a two-paced deck, he put on a show. 90 off 51 – take a bow!"
Match Impact: DC chased 164 in 18.1 overs – their second consecutive successful chase. Sameer Rizvi scored 52 runs on the off side (SR 200) and smashed 7 sixes. MI used six bowlers but couldn't contain the youngster.
