It has been a long wait for KKR and they have finally done it. Chennai will feel gutted, they got very close to making it three consecutive trophies. Then again, the side that held their nerve came out on top and that’s what differentiates champion sides from good teams.

Bisla: There was no plan, I just wanted to enjoy today’s match. I was playing and I got a little tense when Gambhir got out but after I got my shots going I grew in confidence. Kallis is a legend and batting alongside him is a great opportunity for me. He just asked me to keep it simple and keep playing my shots.
Shahrukh Khan: I am extremely happy today. I would like to thank Gautam and the boys. We have fought hard and we have been resilient. I would like to thank Chennai and its supporters for their hospitality.

KKR were really up against it when they had to chase a total of 191. They had their backs to the wall when they lost their skipper and the in form batsman Gambhir. Bisla then showed everyone just why he was picked in place of McCullum. He unleashed some fearless cricket and really tore through Chennai’s attack. Kallis played some nonchalant cricket along side him and just kept rotating the strike. Once Bisla perished Kallis took over and employed some aggressive strokes of his own. Just when it looked like KKR might walk through this they lost wickets in a heap. Hilfenhaus, who bowled three very good overs, lost the plot in the penultimate over and after a no ball for height bowled a full toss to tilt the balance in the opposition’s favour. Manoj Tiwary then batted like the real monk and kept his composure to strike a boundary to seal the victory.
Lee: I think I’m just sweating because of the stress and because of lifting SRK. I think it has been an amazing win. We have bonded very well in this tournament, it isn’t just the guys who are playing who have contributed to this. Every single one who has trained with us has contributed and the support staff as well
What a sight this is, SRK is celebrating with his entire team and all his support staff. Spare a thought for Kallis, everyone criticised him for the pace at which he batted at in this tournament but today he paced it to perfection
Wasim: I have played the World Cup and won it but this feeling is different. I am proud to be with this side and they are true professionals. I think the celebrations will be mad now.
Shakib: I don’t think we will be able to sleep. SRK has already gone mad. It has been a terrific atmosphere this IPL wherever we have played. This moment is something we will cheer for a long time. We knew we needed four boundaries in 24 balls and we had the batting order to do the job. It was up to Manoj and I to do the job and I think we did well
What a befitting final this has been. Just like most IPL matches this went down to the wire. SRK is celebrating in bollywood style, raise your hands is what he might say now to Chennai. KKR have waited for five years and have finally clinched the trophy. They almost choked though, after a great start KKR almost lost the plot towards the end but did very well in the last two overs to hold their nerve and win it. Tendo lifts Gambhir and why not, he has led this side from the front.

When these sides met in Chennai during the league stage, Knight Riders won by five wickets


They are here, again. Those resilient, stubborn Chennai Super Kings. In another IPL final, their fourth in five seasons and their third in a row, pursuing a hat trick of titles. Love them, hate them or couldn’t care less about them, you have to give it to them – the Super Kings got game. They know when and how to turn it on, too, though this season they dangled off the edge of the precipice, holding on with their pinkies, for longer than was comfortable.

Kolkata Knight Riders did not leave their chances hinging on an improbable combination of results over which they had no control. They reached the playoffs with a game to spare and made short work of Delhi Daredevils to enter their maiden IPL final...
