What did Surya say after the match?
After the match, Surya said- When I went to bat in the powerplay, it was really important for me to be at the crease, the team management also wanted the same. I have practiced these (ramp and scoops) strokes a lot and I love doing them. I and Tilak have batted together (Mumbai Indians) for a long time, and we both understand each other's batting styles. The way Tilak batted gave me a lot of confidence. His innings at the other end was brilliant. It was running in my mind that India has never lost three T20 matches in a row. In difficult times, we talked in the team meeting. Our captain said someone needs to contribute and win matches. I am glad that I was able to do this.
