“Very pleased. The talk for us earlier was that these two matches were going to decide where we stand on the table, so very happy with how they went. There is no such conversation (between me and Sai Sudharsan that one of us has to stay till the end), we want to play our best game, score as much runs, we never say that one of us has to stay in the end. We just want to bat deep. We were ahead in the game, but it’s important to close the game. Good teams close the game very well. In this format it’s very difficult to have a perfect game, like ven today maybe 10 more runs if I had stayed there. But still you have to find a way to win the game and that’s what we’re really good at.”
