The surface area did not offer a lot, which’s why the win is unique. We have to strive. It’s an instance of the skill they have, as well as persistent pressure always pays. That’s something our team believe in. The opening competition is a satisfied frustration. It felt great that it came off nicely. Abhinav batted well as well as he should have a hundred.
