Difficult to say. If MI can make Priyansh and Prabhsimran out fast then MI can win. They both are dangerous

True that. Hopefully it is good game to watch

Rohit Sharma is the Player of the Match: "I've got only four fifties; I think I would have liked to get more. I do understand the importance of playing the Eliminator. Again, a complete team performance. When I play, it's trying to understand how I can play my best. Today, after having those luck going my way, I knew I had to make the most of it. I'm glad I could do that, and get the team into a good position. We knew it would be slightly challenging with the dew coming in. I've played all those shots in the game before, and unfortunately, I found fielders [today]. I got lucky; those catches got dropped. Even after the drop, you've got to play well. It was a good bowling effort as well. I've watched Bairstow over the years being on the other side... we know what he can do upfront with the bat. Took his chances, and it came off. We always look for that start."

Rohit Sharma | Player of the Match: I have got only four fities. Would have loved to score more fifties. Good day for us as a team. I do understand the importance of playing this eliminator and going through this and taking the next step forward. Really proud of a complete team effort. When I play the game, I try to do my best keeping everything aside. Making sure how I can do the job for the team. I had to make the most of the luck. I am glad I could do that. Get the team into a good position. It was going to be challenging with the dew coming. The bowlers held their nerves really well. To be honest, I have played those shots before in the tournament and found fielders. Somewhere down the line you got to be lucky and today was that day for me. I got lucky as those catches were dropped. But even after that you got to play. I was focussing on keeping the momentum and tempo going. Was a good bowling effort. Jonny I have watched him over the years from the other side. We know the quality he has. Lot of experience playing in this format. Never looked like he was playing the first game. We got the start and capitalized on it.

Ay ay ay you were just lucky..admit it and go..

Hardik Pandya: At one point of time the game was even-stevens. I thought the wicket got better in the second innings. It started to come on well, they got into rhythm and we realised we need to hold our nerves and back our boys. The way Jonny batted and started.. for him to make his debut for us, it's a special franchise, coming in and playing the way he played. The way Ro batted. He took his time and once he got into rhythm, it was beautiful. The way Gleeson bowled. Jassi being Jassi. Ashwani.. everyone chipped in well and we held our nerves. I would've liked couple more (big hits). The little margins help. We wanted to push in batting and I think we were able to do that. (When to bowl Bumrah?) It's very simple. Whenever you think the game is going away, just bring him (Bumrah). When you have that it's a luxury. It's like Mumbai housing prices - he's that expensive. I was just watching the scoreboard and I thought if we can keep extra runs at the end, I had the bowlers to bowl it. It was important that Jassi comes and bowls that over so that the margin becomes longer (the 18th over). Very important to recover well. Looking forward to the next game.

Jos butler could have made huge difference today for GT
