Following the match, MI skipper Hardik Pandya said despite DC being in control of the chase at one stage, the visitors never lost hope.

“Just by making sure the game is not over, ‘keep fighting’ was the chatter. We knew a couple of wickets would change the game. It has happened with me before as well. Wins like this change the momentum and turn everything around,” Pandya said after the match.

“Winning is always special. Especially in games like this. You have to keep fighting and it means a lot,” he added.
