The Indian team’s performance would be remembered for a long time. The top four batters in the team all scored 50 or more runs, and the bowling unit ensured that Pakistan only scored 128 runs while chasing a target of 257.
After the game, India captain Rohit Sharma praised the entire team but singled out Rahul, Rohit, and Kuldeep.
“Fantastic performance, right from yesterday. When we started, we knew the wicket was good and we had to adjust to the rain, The two experienced (Kohli an Rahul) guys we knew they’d take time to get their eye in and then we can get going.
When asked about Jasprit Bumrah, Rohit said: “Looked good, he swung it both ways and he’s worked really hard for the last 8-10 months. Bumrah is only 27, for him to miss games isn’t ideal but the way he bowled showed what he is all about.”
“Looking at how we batted, there were lots of positives with the openers and then Virat and KL. Virat’s innings was brilliantly paced. And then KL, to get back from injury and then to know 5 minutes before the toss he’s playing, to play that way shows the mindset of the player,” he concluded.
