"To defend 142 was not easy but we had the belief that the guys to do it. The bowlers won us the match. We were not so good with the bat but I don't want to be to too harsh on the batters, they've been in really good form," Sharma said at the post match presentation ceremony.
Kiwi paceman Mitchell McClenaghan was declared man of the match for his three-wicket burst that blew away the Daredevils.
"The last match I went for 50 so it's a roller coaster in T20, every game is a new game. We had certain plans for certain guys and everyone stuck to their guns today," the New Zealander said.
"(Corey) Anderson has pumped me around the park so it was good to get him," he said responding to a query on dismissing his compatriot
"The only chance they had was by taking early wickets and that's exactly what went for them. We restricted them about 20-25 runs short, our bowlers did a fantastic job. Good to see the bowlers dominating. Considering they were at 26 for 6, it was a fantastic effort from Morris and Rabada," he said.
