Talking about his century, Sharma said, “If I am not wrong, the first 100 I got was around the 38th or 39th over. So I was telling myself if I have got this far, I am not going to get out. I was only looking to keep my shape and hit through the line. It was the same thing I did in my first two 200s. I started off pretty slow then too.”

The stand-in skipper was happy for his team as well, he said, “It was a great day. Winning the game was important for me and the team after that loss in Dharamsala. I can keep talking about the batting that we did today, right from the start, with Shikhar (Dhawan) giving us a brilliant start, and Shreyas Iyer – it didn’t look like he was only playing his second ODI.”
