![]() I thought we'll chase something around 200-250, so we were prepared to go and do that. Great achievement, we've been consistent over the last few years and it's our second title in the last 4 years. Lovely, congrats to all the guys (on Saurashtra's Ranji triumph), was following the scores until lunch. A special feeling to hit the winning boundary, looking forward to the remaining 2 Tests. A special feeling, was very nervous as my entire family was there. I think that's a big help because of the balance we have created for ourselves.Ĭheteshwar Pujara: It's been a great Test match, unfortunately I didn't get any runs in the first innings, but I knew if I stay for the first 10 minutes I can score. (Game changing moment) There are lot of moments across four innings, but I thought the partnership between Jadeja and Virat, and then Axar-Ash was brilliant. So our focus was keeping it tight in the morning, and these guys are the masters of bowling in these conditions. What I noticed is there is a lot to offer in the first session, but as it goes on it gets slower and there isn't enough bite. Every game you play in this type of weather, there is some moisture. Our idea was to not panic and just hit the right areas, waiting for the mistake to happen and that's exactly what happened. We were prepared for them coming out and playing shots. On a pitch like this, people need to do something different. And then we finished the job with the bat. I think the bowlers were fantastic, to take 9 wickets today morning is commendable. ![]() Even if we were just one run behind, I felt we were trailing because we had to bat last. Looking at how things were yesterday, the way we came back and finished our job was great.
