1st T20I: The Energy After We Won The Toss Set The Benchmark, Says Suryakumar Yadav
Captain Jos Buttler: After thrashing England by seven wickets to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match T20I series, India skipper Suryakumar Yadav praised the enthusiasm shown by his team for being bang on in all aspects of the game. At the Eden Gardens on Wednesday, led by Varun Chakaravarthy’s 3-23, the bowlers put in a magnificent performance to bowl out England for 132. In reply, Abhishek Sharma’s 79 helped India complete the chase of 133 inside 13 overs.
"The energy after we won the toss set the benchmark. Bowlers had plans and executed (them), and the way we batted was icing on the cake. We did the same in South Africa, Hardik had a responsibility to bowl new ball so cushion to play the extra spinner.”
“Varun's preparations are on point, and Arshdeep is taking the extra responsibility. There's a lot of freedom given, we want to play a bit different. The fielding is one area we've been working really hard. Let's take those half chances and make a difference," said Suryakumar after the match ended.
