:I don't know from where the power is coming from. I am trying to hit as hard as I can. This ton means a lot to me. The last one I had was at the start of the year and this one came at the end of the year.
:We know the talent that he has. He has been struggling a bit in the last 9 months. We are trying to understand his role. He has been in the team from the last 18 months. And he has a taste of international cricket. Everyone playing should be accountable and responsible for the team.
Very good signs for us with the performances of Iyer and Pant. They went about their buiness in a smart manner. We thought six bowling options would be enough. I don't think pitch changed drastically, they batted brilliantly. Hetmyer's innings was outstanding. The fielder asked the umpire about the run out and the on-field umpire said no. A guy sitting outside the field shouldn't tell about the run-out.
