Yusuf: I know it was the most important innings from me and my team. I learnt a lot of things when i got out in the first innings against Mendis. I expected him to bowl in the same areas and I was ready to play my shot.
Warne: The crowd was fantastic. In those situations, both sides would have looked back and said we would’ve done that. For Yusuf Pathan to just walk out there and club a few sixes like that, well done to him, it was fantastic. (On choosing Kamran Khan for the last over): I thought about Yusuf. Kamran gave 6 runs off that last over, I thought he did it well. If you can bowl such a good last over, you can bowl the super over.
McCullum: Yeah it’s pretty disappointing obviously. We thought we were going to get ourselves across the line and even in the Super over we thought we had a reasonable score but the way Yusuf came out and played… He just blew us away. Sourav did incredibly well to get us back into the game. It’s incredibly disappointing but we’ve got a game in two days time so we’ve got to try and rebound. (For the super over) I think Ishant was an option but in the end Mendis, he’s an incredible bowler. Things could have gone differently if we had that catch taken (on the second ball) who knows how it would have unfolded.
Fast forward to the super over - Gayle blasted 15 off the super over from Kamran Khan. Then a major blunder by McCullum to give the ball to Mendis when Yusuf was on strike. Yusuf goes on and seals a terrific match with a couple of massive hits. Yusuf was mobbed by his team mates as Shilpa Shetty went wild alongwith her sister.

April 21st, 2009 DURBAN - Rain played spoilsport Tuesday, forcing the abandonment of the second game between Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals at the Kingsmead here. Both teams will get one point each.
Persistent rain forced abandonment of the game between Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals here on Tuesday. Not even a single ball could be played due to steady drizzle.
The Mumbai team, after gaining one point from Tuesday’s washed out tie, have moved to the top of the table with three points in their kitty. The Sachin Tendulkar-led side had defeated last year’s runners-up Chennai Super Kings in their opening match on Saturday.
Defending champions Rajasthan, who were crushed by the Royal Challengers, opened their account and stand at number seven in the table.

Rajasthan Royals defeated by Bangalore Royal Challengers
I'm only keeping up with the commentary in anticipation of which team KKR will face when it advances to the semi-finals (that's me being positive, not sarcastic). For those who understand what all these figures mean, I'm pasting the results of the match here (full article):
- Bangalore Royal Challengers gained a crushing 75-run win as the champions were bowled out for a paltry 58
- Indian batting star Rahul Dravid made a fine 66 as Bangalore recovered from losing two wickets for no runs in the first three balls of their innings. Bangalore made 133 for eight, which hardly seemed likely to be a total easily defended, but the Royals made a horror start and never recovered. They were bowled out for 58, with no batsman making more than 11
- Mascarenhas struck again when Robin Uthappa was caught behind to reduce the Challengers to 17 for three. But Pietersen made 32 as he and Dravid started a fightback. Dravid carried it on, batting until the last over of the innings as he made 66 off 48 balls with eight fours and a six. Mascarenhas took three for 20 and he was backed up by Munaf Patel (two for 25) and Warne, who claimed two for 18 in his four overs.
