Talking about the game, India captain KL Rahul was proud of the team’s performance as they plotted some great plans through the fixture. He then talked about how their bowlers were put under pressure as Sikandar Raza scored a fighting 115 in 95 balls. Rahul then praised the player of the match and the series, Shubhman Gill by talking about his temperament and confidence.
While speaking in the post-match interview, KL Rahul said, “Feels good, we came here with good ideas. We wanted to be out in the middle and use this time. They have been very professional, and very happy with the result. They took the game deep, we would have liked to finish the game earlier. The bowers were tested and they held their nerves. Fielded about 120 overs, got some time out in the middle with the bat.”
“I am tired coming back after a couple of months. But this is what we all want to do, playing for India. (On Gill) He's been batting well since the IPL. Very pleasing to the eye. Not seen him over-confident. That requires composure, to show that kind of temperament is good,” Rahul further concluded.
