So we've had our first run fest of the Indian T20 but the action still doesn't stop. We have Rajasthan v Hyderabad coming up in a few minutes so do stick around for that as well. Glenn Maxwell is the Man of the Match "I play with the bowler to try and upset the bowler and find the gaps. Feels pretty good to chase down 200+ against Chennai, they're a pretty good team. Hopefully the batsmen can keep it up and the bowlers can chip in as well" "Just try and be positive. It was a pretty good wicket. We pulled it back with the ball in the middle overs considering they were heading for 230," George Bailey says, "Maxi has been in great touch and we hope he carries on for Punjab" "When you score 200, you have to remember the opposition has every chance of scoring it as well," says MS Dhoni. "Fantastic wicket, they batted really well. We should have done better with the ball. [Bravo going off injured] Still he was not fit to bowl today, we played him as a batsman so we were a bowler short. Batsmen did their job, bowlers should have had different plans for different individuals. Bowl right areas. The margin of error is very small. Overall it will be difficult for the bowlers. Not much spin. The game was down to the batsman, we did well but they beat us fair and square" Danish Patel: "Entertaining it surely has been, but worrying more-so for Indian cricket! Both innings were constructed by foreign players and in both innings Indian bowlers were taken to the cleaners! " Siddharth: "You know your bowling attack is weak when your most economical bowler of the day is Ashish Nehra!" 5.50 pm You would have thought Chennai got enough on the board after making the first 200-plus total this year, but their bowling had no answer to the wiles of Glenn Maxwell. His sweeps and reverse sweeps and switch hits and the occasional orthodox cover drives ushered Punjab to their second victory chasing over 200 in the League. Of course he was helped in his endeavor by a couple of drops and some ordinary, leg-stump bowling
