Indian captain Rohit Sharma said, “I know this ground. I have played a lot of cricket here. It is not easy to know what is the score to win here. So I know that it is not easy to get free here. We were a bit sloppy in the fielding but we were calm.
Shreyas Iyer’s contribution to the series will never be forgotten. Gill stood up as a young player and performed brilliantly. Even though he was injured, he needed to get back on the field. Kohli, as usual, played his trademark game and hit a new milestone. I want us to bat with the same template as we saw in this match. We did everything we could to create a turning point in the game. Finally Shami came and showed his mettle and was amazing. The league match against England was a bit of a challenge for us. After that, this match was also a bit stressful for us as it was a semi-final. But, we have done our job properly!” said Rohit Sharma.
