Player of the Match
Mayank Yadav | India
It feels great to contribute to the country in a win. It’s a great feeling, especially coming back after a very long interval. It’s a very special moment for me. The wicket was pretty good.
I was enjoying a lot bowling on this wicket, especially after playing in India. It’s the first time I’m playing in Zimbabwe. I was getting good help from the wicket.
The biggest difference was the bounce I got today and the ball was also swinging. I was just hitting the deck and the bounce I was getting was great.
