“I thought we got a very good score. In the middle overs we didn’t stick to our bowling plans. They kept coming hard at us and kept scoring boundaries. Going through and through for 20 overs, they had the momentum on their side. Arshdeep has been nothing short of brilliant,” said Mayank Agarwal in a post-match presentation.
