That's all from the opening game. Join us on the 6th again as Texas Super Kings will take on Los Angeles Knight Riders at 6 am IST (12.30 am GMT) for the game. Till then, cheers!
Kieron Pollard says the bowlers were very good and credits them for the way they executed the plans. Adds they have a few good additions and everyone needs to understand their role. Credits the way Pooran batted and he hopes he can continue to do well.
Heinrich Klaasen says he enjoyed the challenge of leading a side. Mentions the wicket was slow and they lost a lot of wickets at the start. Mentions the bowlers were decent but MI batted well. Adds everyone fitted in well and they're looking forward to the next game.
Nicholas Pooran, MAN OF THE MATCH, says it is good to get off to a win. Adds he is happy he stayed there till the end and took responsibility. Mentions the bowlers were good and it was a total team effort. Says he backs his skill and his plan and he wants to make most of the start he gets.
Trent Boult says he's happy to start with a win. Adds they just wanted to keep the pressure going and it got them wickets. Credits the way Pooran played. Ends by saying they executed their plans well.
Seattle Orcas just did not have enough runs on the board but they'll be dispoaiinted with the ease they let MI New York sfore the runs. Gannon did get two early but then it was his second over which let the momentum shift towards MI. They were just outplayed by a far better team.
A strong win for MI New York! It was never in doubt once they restricted their opposition to a low score. They did lose two early but then it was the Pooran show. He counter attacked and scored a fine fifty. He stayed there till the end and ensured his side get a comprehensive win.
