Taylor: Both times, the chasing side lost by five runs. Best cricket wicket, great for batting. The bowler's won't say that. Always trying to keep a smile on the face. Great game to watch, would've been even better to win it.

Tendulkar: It was very exciting towards the end. The bowlers did a great job for us. Azhar played a fabulous knock. Rahul also batted exceptionally well. Most definitely, the final is going to be a big match for us.

Azhar is the Player of the Match: Very fond of watches. We had to pull up our socks and in the Hero Cup also we won two games and made to the finals. Brilliant wicket, produced a lot of runs, and the crowd enjoyed. This is also one of the best stadiums in the world.

So, India will face South Africa in the Titan Cup final in Mumbai. What a thrilling finish here. That is that. Thanks for reading.

Tendulkar to Hogg, OUT

Yes, Tendulkar has done it for India. Seam-up just outside off, Hogg aims to scoop it over the leg side, off the pad and balloons behind the stumps. The keeper gathers the ball and ferries it to Tendulkar, who keeps cool and effects the run out at the non-striker's end. Taylor is stunned
