Quotes
Vihaan Malhotra
Indian cricket player and Player of the Match
“It’s a great feeling to contribute to the team with the bat, and I had a great day. Actually, we had so many overs to go, so we both planned to take the game long and the occasional boundary in between, so yes, that was the plan. Yes, it was hot today. We’ve been having cloudy weather with winds. Pacers have been helped from the wicket, but today it was a little hot, and the pitch was nicer, so it was nice to be playing this game. Actually, he was playing his normal game. He was finding his boundaries where he is strong, and we were just having a good chat in the middle, with good communication. That’s why our partnership was so helpful. He’s such a key player, contributed to the ball in one game, won the player of the match there, contributed to the bat in this particular game.”
