NICK KNIGHT: Rahul what do you think went wrong for you guys?
RAHUL DRAVID: I think toss was an important decision, we felt that our bowlers could restrict South Africa to some 350-odd and our batsman to get a competitive lead and expect our bowlers to deliver on a worn out pitch. I think 566 was a really good total on that pitch and it put pressure on our batsmen to score for us. I felt Ashwin was our best bowler. Being a spinner and taking a 5-fer on that track was an excellent achievement. I think the way Graeme Smith batted was very intimidating to our bowlers and it affected their confidence going forward into the match. Kallis was once again brilliant with the bat but the innings that De Villiers played really took the match away from us. I won't be too harsh on Shami because I felt the tried to keep the ball in the right place and found too many edges as well. He was unfortunate that he found Smith's edge very early in the day on Day 1 only for Viru to drop it, but again it's a Final and such things just happen and we can't do anything much about it. Also, as said earlier 566 was a little too much for us but the way Viru and Rohit batted at top gave us a little confidence. But then Viru got out and I got dismissed for a duck and everything happened so quickly that we lost our momentum. An innings of highest class from Sachin in the Final was nothing new to us but the situation which he tackled was a sight worth watching. Although we gave away a lead of 80, Sachin's innings gave us a new hope. That innings actually gave us a lot of confidence which translated into performance through our bowlers. Both Shami and Kumble tried to make up for the damage that happened in the first innings and once again it was Ashwin to helped us by getting some crucial breakthroughs. 321 again I felt was good enough for our batting to chase it down but Donald ensured that they were on top of us all throughout. Philander was equally tough for us to face in the 1st innings. But all in all it was a great effort by our team right from the start of the tournament to the Final and our performance in the Final was a great example regarding the strength of our team. I am proud of our team. (Runners up prize: Team managers receives VCash 5,00,000)
NICK KNIGHT: First of all Sachin, congratulations for your first hundred at The Home of Cricket. How well would you rate this knock Sachin?
SACHIN TENDULKAR: Thank you, thank you very much. Honestly this is one of those knocks where I felt absolutely confident of scoring runs despite some really tight bowling from South Africa especially Donald and Philander. I felt those 2 just bowled their heart out on a pitch like that. The score that South Africa put definitely played in our minds but again they really deserve appreciation for the way they bowled. I felt we did really well to get to 486. When I was batting I felt that even 400 would be tough to get but thanks to Hardik and Ashwin for sticking together. I felt Rohit also batted with a lot of fluency in both the innings but was unfortunate to miss out on a well deserved hundred in the 1st and was run out due to the miscommunication between us but such things just happen in the pressure of the Final. Disappointed not to take my team through to victory but South Africa played really well and they deserve to win this tournament. Hatsoff to everyone involved in their team especially Smith, Kallis, de Villiers, Gary and Donald for performing well throughout the tournament.

NICK KNIGHT: Congratulations Alastair for being a consistent run scorer throughout the tournament. How did you manage to score everywhere irrespective of the conditions?
ALASTAIR COOK: I just kept things simple and what I looked for was being on the crease as long as possible. Test Cricket is about accumulating as many runs to put your team under a good position where your bowlers can defend the score. The thing was not to try and score every ball but to tire down the bowlers, wear out the new ball and spending as much time on the crease as possible. I would equally appreciate Joe Root for making things easier for me and the team. Really enjoyed batting with him throughout the tournament and we put on quite a good partnerships together. Disappointed not to take the side through to the Finals but we fought well throughout the tournament which was a big positive for us.

NICK KNIGHT: Congratulations Ashwin!!!! How do you look at this tournament from an individual performance perspective?
R Ashwin: Well it feels great to be the Man of the Tournament of a tournament of the most prestigious form of Cricket- The Test Cricket. I think so it was a tournament of great highs and a few lows for me. I didn't get wickets in the opening match at the Eden Gardens but then again it was a track more suited for seam bowling so it was pleasing to be economical on that track. It was a difficult match but it felt good to be able to contribute with the bat as well in the match. England series at home was a good one and it felt good to have some wickets under the belt along with the form that I wanted to take forward. Unfortunately we struggled to win in South Africa and consequently went on to lose all matches on that tour. But then coming to England a taking a truck load of wickets feels something special. Taking 12 wickets in a game at Nottingham was very special and something that I would cherish for a long time. In the Final again it was tough to bowl at South Africa batsmen but it was a proud moment to be able to take 5 wickets in the first innings and ending with 8 in the Final. I felt when me and Hardik were batting the target was very much achievable for us but losing wickets at crucial intervals cost us the match. Nevertheless, a great game of Cricket and hopefully the Indian fans back home enjoyed the performance.

NICK KNIGHT: Many congratulations to you Graeme and your team. An incredible performance from South Africa. Share your final thoughts Graeme
GRAEME SMITH: Yeah, it feels great to be winning this tournament. We came into this tournament with lot of positivity and our only thought was to win this coveted title. We've done a lot of hardwork and it felt good to have paid well on the boys. They really gave a tough time to the opponent on a consistent basis. I know we lost to India at the start of the tournament with a 2-1 margin but for the most part we dominated that series only to lose it at last. We were really disappointed and dejected with our performance but from then on we instilled a new belief in ourselves and bounced back by winning 6 consecutive matches and making it to the Final before everyone else. We just felt it was right to Test our bench strength in England and rest some of our marquee players for the series so that they are fresh just before the Finals. It got really difficult for us to contain India near the end of the game but Donald just kept his cool and won us the tournament. Special appreciation for Allan Donald for being our leading wicket-taker in this tournament who did not compromise at his pace and kept the batsmen on toes. It was a great sight of fast bowling for us to watch. Also a little appreciation for Sachin Tendulkar for the way he played over the course of last 5 days and some masterclass stroke play against our attack proved that he was ready to take on the challenge. We feel really proud to play India in the Finals, they were a great side and a tough opposition for us and to be able to beat them in the Final was always going to be special. Also I would not want to forget the way KG and Philander performed for us when the stakes were highly against us. They did great favour on them by making a mark in the side despite the bowling strength we have. Great tournament for all the teams involved and a highly successful one for us.
