Post-Match Reactions - RCB vs DC

• Tristan Stubbs (DC): "Feeling amazing to finish off the game for KL. Popped in during a tricky part, but run rate remained within control. Made it simple by KL. DLS was just discussed briefly with us, but I wasn't too concerned about it. Played for myself initially, then tried to push ahead. Enjoy late-order batting — it allows better reading of the game."
  
• Axar Patel (DC Captain): "Confidence is the word — four consecutive wins is fantastic. We set match-ups well in advance; RCB prefer pace early on, so we employed more spin during the powerplay. There was bounce and grip on the pitch. The 19th over strategy did not work but we still managed to win (laughs). Vipraj has been outstanding and makes me confident. Captaincy is made simpler by KL."

• KL Rahul (Player of the Match): "Wicket was a little tricky but consistent. Standing behind the stumps helped me understand it. Wanted to start well and then control the innings. Knew my scoring areas and adapted according to ground sizes. Practice helps me identify boundary opportunities — worked today. Always love playing on my home ground."
  
• Rajat Patidar (RCB Captain): “We misread the pitch; expected it to be better for batting. Losing quick wickets from 80/1 to 90/4 hurt us. We’ve got a strong batting line-up but need better assessment. Tim David’s finishing has been a huge plus. Powerplay bowling was good. We’re focusing on improving as a team.”
