4th T20I: I Was Trying To Play My Shots And Enjoy My Game, Says Jaiswal After An Unbeaten 93 Against Zimbabwe
Harare Sports Club: Under glorious sunshine at the Harare Sports Club on Saturday, India had tons to cheer about, more so in their chase of 153. It all came thanks to Yashasvi Jaiswal and captain Shubman Gill striking unbeaten fifties in resounding fashion as India thrashed Zimbabwe by ten wickets to take an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match series.
With Zimbabwe’s bowlers giving them width and desirable lengths to hit, Jaiswal and Gill kickstarted a rollicking show that saw India raise their fifty in just 3.5 overs. It was effectively one-way traffic as Jaiswal got to his half-century off 29 balls, while Gill got his fifty in 35 balls as India completed the chase in just 15.2 overs.
“I really enjoyed today. The wicket was really good. I was trying to play my shots and I enjoyed my game. When the ball was new it was coming onto the bat. When the ball got old, it was slow. I understood and changed my game. We really enjoyed together. Initially, I wanted to go after my shots. After that, I wanted to rotate and wanted to stay till the end,” said Jaiswal, named Player of the Match, after the game ended.
