Player of the Match
Yashasvi Jaiswal | India
Yes, of course. I really enjoyed it. I’m really grateful and blessed. (On his conversations with Rohit while batting) We have been chatting a lot about how we can play and how we can set the target and what tempo we can play.
So, I’m trying to understand. I had starts in last two games but I couldn’t convert. So, we have been speaking how we can convert this and how we balance this inning. I was just thinking how I can balance the inning.
So, sometimes I need to be attacking and sometimes I was thinking, okay, maybe I’ll take a single or I’ll run the game. So, that was my plan and it was pretty good. (did he have to curb his aggression tonight?)
I have to control my thoughts on where I can play, what shot I can play and how I can play as deep as possible. And with keeping that in my mind that if it requires, I need to go after the bowlers.
(on batting with Virat) Virat paaji, the minute he came, he started playing a lot of shots and we kept chatting as well. He kept giving me small targets that I need to focus on. So, it was helping me towards my goal as well. So, I really enjoyed it.
