RCB first IPL team enters to the clt20 semi finals

Bangalore Royal Challengers batsman Virat Kohli said he was happy that he could take his team to the semifinals of the ACLT20.

"Really happy to be there till the end, and the team won.

I was really disappointed that I couldn't finish it off in the last game despite taking it to the last ball. Happy to do it this time," said Kohli, who scored an unbeaten 49, said.

"T20 games turn in one over. I was waiting for it, and it came in the 17th over. I messed up with Uthappa's run out and apologised to him. He is a good friend, doesn't mind that," he added.

"As long as wickets were there, and Virat was in with Whitey, we knew it was about one good over," he said.

"Virat also bowled well and his spell was critical. Virat and my spell at the middle overs was crucial. Dillon and Steyn also bowled really well in the end.

"I was disappointed with my performance in the previous game. But no better time to step up than in the next game.

Nice to go back to Durban. Hope Chennai makes it there," he said.

"We fought all the way and played as a team. Our success should not be measured by where we finished, but by the obstacles we crossed. We were about 20 runs short. Kumble tied us up a bit. The best team won - all the best to Bangalore for the semis," he said.
