Talented India opener Yashasvi Jaiswal revealed that he and captain Shubman Gill were batting to win the game against Zimbabwe without losing any wickets. They focused on the team’s victory rather than thinking about individual scores. Chasing 153, Jaiswal and Gill did well to reach the target in 15.2 overs, recording only the second instance of India beating Zimbabwe by 10 wickets in a T20I on Saturday as well.

Jaiswal was the aggressor in the partnership and looked set for a century but remained unbeaten on 93 in the fourth T20I, which came off 53 balls with 12 fours and two sixes. A fan also asked Jaiswal what was the conversation he had with Gill during the game’s final phase as he missed out on his ton by 7 runs as well.

“We were only thinking about finishing the game and make sure that the team wins and we finish without any loss (of a wicket),” Jaiswal told a group of fans after the game in a video shared by the BCCI. “The only thing in our mind was to finish the game without any loss,” Jaiswal said. “I really enjoyed playing today, it was an amazing experience with Shubman bhai and I really enjoyed scoring the runs. Whenever I play for India I really enjoy and feel proud,” he added.

However, a member of the T20 World Cup-winning squad, the youngster who made his international debut across formats only last year, said that he totally enjoyed the experience of being a part of the historic feat as well.

“I enjoyed my process and being a part of the World Cup champion team and I learnt a lot. I was really excited. Whenever I get a chance I try my best and make sure that I am contributing for the team and winning the games for my team,” he concluded.
