"The conditions were challenging for both sides, but we showed more application with the bat. We didn't panic out there looking at the turn and bounce, we showed grit, got into the game and scored 600 runs in the game," an ecstatic Virat Kohli said in the post-match presentation.

"It gave me a hero feeling. In Covid times, a lot of people came without any worries and even though some didn't wear masks they cheered for us. I dedicate this win to the Chennai crowd."
