‘We had faith in him but were also nervous’
Rahul said after the match, ‘You have to show confidence in your batsmen at the crease. We had faith in him but were also nervous. After all we are humans too. But we had full faith in our batsmen. According to KL Rahul, ‘Today Ashwin and Shreyas played their roles well. He gave victory to India by performing well. At no point were we going to assume that victory would be easy. We knew that we would have to work hard to score runs.

‘We lost more wickets than expected’
Rahul said, ‘It would have been more difficult to score runs with the new ball. We lost more wickets than expected. We made mistakes but we will learn from it and hopefully in future we will do better in such situations. Rahul, who is leading the team in place of Rohit Sharma, also praised his bowlers. The series win shows how we have prepared our fast bowlers. Ashwin and Akshar Patel also performed well. Umesh (Yadav) performed his responsibility well. Jaydev Unadkat came back after a long time but he bowled brilliantly and he deserved to take more wickets. But Ashwin and Akshar took advantage of the pressure they created.

This was India’s last international match of the year. After this, Team India will now start the series against Sri Lanka in the new year i.e. 2023.
