Fantastic to get an opening game win, even if it did come via a bowl out. Great game to start with, and nice presentation.

Ravi Shastri : Well well well what an exciting first match we had here in the DFL Indian Premiere League, Kolkata and Bangalore really gave the excitement to the crowd here with both teams even after 40 overs of cricket it came down to the bowl off with Kolkata winning 3-1, I have Sourav here with me, Sourav good start to the tournament?
Sourav Ganguly : Yeah it was a nerve racking match and a perfect way to start this exciting series, it goes to show you how even this tournament is going to be.
Ravi Shastri : So how was it like playing with the like of Gilly and Polloack?
Sourav Ganguly : Yeah it was quite different, it was a complete different feel to what it is with your fellow countryman, but to have two ledgends from different backgrounds is an exciting prospect for us here in Kolkata we have alot of expirience between us and hopefully we can win the remaining 8 games to lift the trophy.
Ravri Shastri : Thanks Sourav, I would like to call over Rahul Dravid. Rahul how was the first match and are you dissapointed to not come up with the win?
Rahul Dravid : It's allways dissapointing to come so close and to not walk away with the 4pts is a shame, but for all the fans it is a great way to start the tournament with a thrilling finish.
Ravri Shastri : Thanks Rahul, Just like to present the man of the match award to Jaques Kallis for his wonderful 55 runs and also for picking up two crucial wickets. So Jaques how was your first taste of IPL?
Jaques Kallis : First taste is a little sour with the result, would of liked the 4pts instead (chuckle) but it was exciting and a good spectacle, now the world knows what IPL is all about.
Ravri Shastri : 55 runs 2 wickets what was going through your head, especially when you hit Shaun Tait for to consecutive 6's?
Jaques Kallis : I really can't remember that much, just had so much addrenaline pumping through me, but the 2 wickets I just made sure I bowled in the right spot and if I did that the wickets would come my way.
Ravri Shastri : Thanks Jaques just like to remind the audience out there about the points system, we have a two man judging panel who will award the man of the match with 3pts with 2nd player picking up 2pts and 3rd player picking up 1pt, all points will be callculated at the end of the series. So that means Jaques Kallis picks up 3pts with Gilly getting 2pts and 1pt goes to Trescothick.

David Loyd : Thanks Ravri, I'm here on the boundary listening to the fans cheer as both teams walk off to the dressingrooms and I have Dwayne Bravo here with me, Dwayne good match and nice to see jou kept your cool to get the 3rd wicket in the bowl off?
Dwayne Bravo : Yeah thanks I just made sure I took a couple of deep breaths and just prayed it hit.
David Loyd : Good win for Kolkata to get the 4pts how have you enjoyed this expirience so far?
Dwayne Bravo : Loved it, can't wait for the next match and will be keeping a close eye on the other teams performances.
