LATEST NEWS
MS Dhoni and his team have lifted the Indian T20 League trophy for the 4th time. What an amazing season this was especially for their openers Faf du Plessis and young Ruturaj Gaikwad. With the kind of form they were in the last season, no one would have imagined them winning the title this year. But as Dhoni mentioned, Kolkata played some outstanding cricket in the second half of the tournament after a very slow start in the season. Venkatesh Iyer has been a real find of the year. Hopefully we will see him soon in the India Blue.
Stephen Fleming: "The players responded beautifully in this 4 years cycle. The guys have done well in pressure situations. Guys like Ruturaj Gaikwad. Building relationships and understanding players very important. It has been a wonderful competition and we have enjoyed."
Brendon McCullum: "Super Proud of all the guys! Chennai are a champion team and congratulations to them. The way the guys specially the young Indian guys performed really well in the second half of the tournament. Really proud of them! Big Shoutout to Shahrukh Khan and others for all their support."

Dwayne Bravo: "Belief in the squad from management, owners. After last season was really disappointed. Didn't get nervous (coming into a final). Have had good performance in different phases of the tournament. Faf and Ruturaj standout for us. To have these two guys scoring over 500 runs together. Experience beats youth anyday."
Robin Uthappa: "Extremely gratefiul, feels amazing to be part of this side. I just wanted to come in and contribute to the team's success, today we had a good start and it was important for us to take advantage and we had a set batsmen (Faf) at the other end and I took it on and got a few shots. The Management create very secure environment within the group and there's lot of clarity and communication within the support staff and the players and that really helps in building a secure group. I believe it's your players who are not playing in the eleven that really create the atmosphere within the group and they make sure that they look after the players who are not playing in the eleven and I think that's one of the biggest takeaways of our success in IPL."
Ruturaj Gaikwad: "It is top of the moon feeling to win the orange cap and win the IPL. It feels great. We didn't have a great season last year. When you are performing well, you are confident on your lesser risk shots. You need to make sure you are there till the end."
