Talking about how the team could do well in the field, Vikram Rathour said during the post-match press conference: “The wicket today was good, better than the last one during Pakistan. We could have been more disciplined. The three dropped catches helped them. They batted well…Glad nothing major happened (because of the dropped catches). It was good to see how we responded to it (the target),” he added.

Regarding the selection call, Vikram Rathour said: “Ishan played really well. He has been doing really good. But KL has also done well for two years. It is a good problem to have. Team management will take the final decision. We have 15 players in the squad to test different combinations against different teams in different conditions. Shardul (Thakur) gives us batting depth…If we want to go all out with our fast bowlers, we have that as an option option. We have the option to play one more spinner as well as we have Axar Patel. It is good to have these options,” Vikram Rathour concluded.
