Graeme Smith: "(captain SA )
It would have been terrific if we had hung around. England did it couple of times against us but credit must be given to MS an his boys. We should have batted better in the first innings. We then came and dropped a few catches. You have to give credit to all the boys for trying. The pitch (here) was still good. Batting on last day in India was always going to be difficult. Special words to Amla .. he has been outstanding through the series. He is become our glue at no 3. I don't think any of us have seen him play better. He has a calm mind and has been working very hard. Great to see it coming together for me. The last two trios to India ... I can't complain. We have drawn the series.. not every team can say that. Hopefully next time we come out here, we can go one step forward. But next India will be coming to South Africa later this year. They will want to win at our home and we want to do well. I would like to thank the crowd for all the support."
Man of the match and the Man of the series is Hashim Amla::
"I am feeling tired. I am very disappointed in losing this game. Me and Morne were just having some fun out there. He played really well and so did Parnell earlier. Fortunately, Morne and Parnell are decent batsmen and took lots of pressure of me. I am being just grateful that I have had a good tour. I have now the one-days to look forward to .Unfortunately we have lost the game ... It was a very good wicket. we could have saved it; there wasn't' anything unplayable from the wicket."
MS Dhoni: (captain indian )
IT was important for us to bat just once and four of us got hundreds. The bowlers were great. The wicket did nothing on the first day but Bhaji and mishy bowled well. Then today we didn't have Zaheer and the bowlers bowled really well. The amount of effort the three bowlers put in today, we desperately wanted to be on the winning side. In Indian cricket you are always under pressure. Ishant is getting rhtyhm back, Mishra too bowled very well. And Harbhajan too .. after Anil bhai's retirement, there is lots of pressure on him and he bowled really well."
