At the back of this knock, Virat Kohli was deemed the Player of the Match award. Talking about his performance, Kohli described his knock and the win as special. He further expressed the opening partnership as unexpected and stated his approach was to score runs from ball one.
Kohli said, "Quite special considering the magnitude of the game. Thought SRH got a very good score. Ball was gripping as well. We wanted a good solid start. Didn't expect to be 172/0. But that's how well Faf and me have played this season. Faf's been on a different level. I've had a quiet couple of games. The way I was hitting in the nets wasn't transitioning into the middle in the last 2-3 matches. Wanted to make an impact and my intent was to go after the bowlers from ball 1 - something I've done through the season. There was a dip but I wanted to pick my game up at the right time."
