Indian skipper, Shubman Gill praised his side’s hunger to bounce back after a defeat in the first match of the series and named the adaptive skills as another reason why India was able to turn the series around and win 4 matches in a row against Zimbabwe.
“I think, the hunger that we showed after losing the first match was fantastic to watch. When we came here, not everyone had a lot of hits in the nets. We weren’t really used to the conditions. The way we adapted (was great),” said Gill after India’s 42-run win in the fifth and final T20I.
Washington Sundar who was awarded with the Player of the Series award, said that the pace and bounce of the pitch at the Harare Sports Club took the Indian batsmen by surprise initially, which cost them the first match. He added that the series win had given the side a lot of confidence going into the upcoming white-ball series against Sri Lanka.
“Good to finish with a win. I felt after the first game that the condition were very similar to South Africa, with extra speed and extra bounce. Lots of takeaways, lots of learnings, a lot of confidence going into the Sri Lanka series,” said Sundar.
