From the outside, it didn’t appear that much risk taken, and there was a lot of calmness in the middle “Rohit stated in a post-match presentation.
“Surya batted brilliantly, forming an excellent partnership with Iyer. The pitch had something for the bowlers, and it was not an easy target. On a ground like that, it was critical to choose the right shots and balls “He continued.
