Mayank Agarwal (Winning Captain) said, "Yeah Definitely! Two very important points for us. Good wicket - very good wicket. Chasing 200 isn't easy but we battled really well. It becomes a lot easier to bat in the second innings as there was dew. We held our nerves and took the right chances. Glad it came off. Very honestly I thought we gave them 15-20 more.
The way Faf and Virat battled, I thought they took the game away. For us to come out and chase that gives our batting a lot of confidence. It's a lot to do with a depth and also we trust our skills. We have made it clear in the dressing room that whoever is out there is capable. If doesn't come off it does not come off."
