Explaining his role at the time he went in to bat in the match against the Netherlands, he said that the need of the hour was to increase the scoring rate and that’s what he chose to do, taking it one ball at a time.
“I was just trying to express myself when I went in to bat. The situation was very simple, I just had to up the tempo at that time. I took one ball today (to get going), but the message was loud and clear. We had to get about 8-10 an over and get a total that our bowlers could defend easily. Very happy with the way things went,” the right-hand batsman said.
