6. RPS’ young opening batsman Rahul Tripathi impressed one and all with his attacking and gutsy display of batting at the top of the order. But he too fell early in the final and scored just 3 runs off 8 balls.

7. Although, many fans believe that Smith batted very slow and consumed too many balls in the middle overs, he was still the highest run scorer of the match.

8. Now, this was one hell of a prediction. Who would have imagined before the start of the match that Steve Smith’s strike rate will be below 100. However, @theDcricket wasn’t 100% correct, as Smith scored his runs at a strike rate of 102. Not too far!
