I was quite happy to restrict them to 180 and we came out with intent with Phil Salt batting like that: DC captain David Warner

Speaking at the post-match presentation, David Warner revealed that he was satisfied with their bowlers' efforts as they restricted RCB for a decent total. He then praised Philip Salt for displaying aggressive intent from the onset and leading the charge in the batting department.

"It was absolutely amazing," he said. "I thought 180 was probably par. The ball started skidding on nicely. I was quite happy to restrict them to 180 and we came out with intent with Phil Salt batting like that. We said at the outset that we wanted to try and target Siraj. That was our intention today. We knew with Siraj, he's been bowling extremely well and he's their backbone."

Warner added:

"We've got a great team. It's all about momentum and the table is so jammed at the moment. We're off to Chennai now - we know it's going to be a tough one down there, they've got some good momentum as well. But we're looking forward to it."

The Delhi Capitals will next face the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Wednesday, May 10, at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
