Virat Kohli: We wanted this win. We need those 2 points to get into the top 4, but we are not relying on that. We need to focus on what KXIP bowled really well towards the death. Sending Saha right up the order was a great move, I think that made the difference. They played quite well, they had nothing to lose, so credit to them. We have been playing really good cricket. We had one loss against Chennai but we didn't focus too much on it. We need to focus on our strengths. I feel for George, it is never easy for a captain when you keep losing. Last year, we finished seventh as well.
