Speaking at the post-match presentation ceremony after the match, Dhawan said that he is disappointed he could not finish the game.

"Totally opposite to Wankhede, feeling great to win in Chennai, feels good when you can beat a team like Mumbai Indians, the confidence level will naturally go high," Dhawan said.

"We knew that it would be tough for them when the ball gets wet, the spinners would find it hard, wanted to keep the partnerships going, strung together a good stand with Lalit (Yadav), a bit disappointed at not having finished it off," he added.

"But glad that we ended up winning the game, the way we played, I think we deserved to win," he further said.

DC will next face off against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday.
