5. Who said what?
CSK captain Rituraj Gaikwad said

I think there was a lot of score of 170 runs on this pitch. Batting in the second innings was not as easy. When you chase more than 20 runs, the powerplay requires a fast start. Which we did not do. The new ball was stopping. We did not even good fielding. However, we did not lose by a big margin. For further, we have to see what other aspects we need to improve.

RCB captain Rajat Patidar

According to me, we made a good total on this pitch. The ball was coming a bit stopping, on which it was not easy to hit a four or a six. Spinners were getting help in the pitch. Livingstone bowled brilliantly. We got 3 wickets in the powerplay. Playing in Chepock is always special. The way his fans support him.
