After the win, Aman said it gave him more confidence.

“(In earlier matches) I was going to bat at 30 balls 100 required and all of that. I wasn’t thinking much and I wasn’t low on confidence. But in the previous game that I played in Hyderabad, I went in a similar situation and I threw my wicket away. So, I was really disappointed with myself and I was just thinking that if I get another opportunity like that,” Khan said in the post-match presentation.

Ishant Sharma said he has been practising bowling yorkers: “I keep practising in the nets. We practice bowling we the new ball, but at the same time we do practice bowling wide yorkers, and today the hard work paid off, I just backed myself and bowled wide yorkers. When you are preparing yourself in the nets we plan to certain batsmen as to what to bowl and it is all about executing it every single time, back yourself and believing in yourself.”
