I was trusted
Speaking at the post-match presentation, Surya said, “It will take some time. I am very happy with whatever has happened. It has been a long journey. It started after 2024 when Jaibhai, the then BCCI secretary, expressed confidence in me. It is a special feeling to come and perform at the Narendra Modi Stadium. In the last two years, we played good cricket and everything was going well. I wanted to adopt the good habits learned from the 2024 World Cup.”
spoke on players
Talking further, Surya said, “It is very important to understand his ability. The time of Sanju’s arrival was absolutely right. Varun, Abhishek – are the number 1 players in the world. Also, Bumrah, Hardik and Axar – all of them have been a part of the team for a long time. As Sanju had said in the last match, he (Jasprit Bumrah) is a once-in-a-generation bowler. I can call him a national treasure. He knows what to do. And how to do it.”
