3rd ODI: Gill Hails ‘near-perfect’ Win For India After Rohit And Kohli Shine In Sydney
Sydney Cricket Ground: India captain Shubman Gill described his side’s nine-wicket win over Australia in the third and final ODI at the Sydney Cricket Ground as a ‘near-perfect game’, thanks to the team’s bowling effort and the clinical chase led by Rohit Sharma’s 121 not out and Virat Kohli’s unbeaten 74 in Sydney on Saturday.
“We had a near-perfect game. Pulled things back in the middle overs. Chase was pleasing to see. Our spinners, contained in the middle and pacers, took key wickets. Harshit has bowled fast in the middle overs; we need that quality. Rohit and Kohli have done it for so many years. Delight to watch. Special win (first as ODI captain) on a special ground,” Gill said after the match ended.
Rohit, who was named both Player of the Match and Player of the Series, reflected on the challenge of playing in Australia and the importance of passing on his rich experiences to younger players.
