He continued, ‘It looked like he would score 230-235 but the bowlers did really well. Just have fun and express yourself. We have been in such situations many times in franchise cricket, just told Ishan to have fun. We knew what was going to happen. I left the burden of captaincy in the dressing room. I try to enjoy my batting. The atmosphere was amazing, thanks to the fans. It was great to see how the boys kept their composure.

With this he said, ‘I am very happy with the way the boys played. Very happy with their energy, we were under pressure but the way everyone performed was fantastic. This is a proud moment. Whenever you play, you think about representing India but to come here and captain India is a big moment. Thought there would be some mist but it didn’t. This is not a big ground and I knew it would be easy to bat.
