Kolkata, May 13 - After ripping apart the Delhi Dardevils top-order with a tornado-like opening spell in his maiden Indian Premier League outing, Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar tonight said he had put everything into his bowling and had 'no points to make to anybody'.

"I just wanted to win the game. I have no points to make to anybody," said the Rawalpindi Express, who returned brilliant figures of 3-0-11-4 that ensured a 23-run victory for the Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens here.

In an oblique reference to the controversy that dogged him for the last few months, Shoaib said "I was stressed but put everything behind me".

The tearaway thanked his teammates, coach John Buchanan, captain Sourav Ganguly and team owner Shah Rukh Khan.

"Sharing the dressing room with SRK and Sourav was fantastic.. They backed me. And I am really happy to perform. They put faith in me. And I am happy to deliver".

Visibly elated after his stupendous performance, Akhtar said "For me, my team is the most important thing. Kolakta is my home team. Eden Gardens is my home ground".

Akhtar made his debut at the Eden in 1999, and has turned in a number of memorable performances on the hallowed turf.
