But today we have achieved what the whole country wanted. The most special thing is that I did not say a single word about how my last six months passed. I knew that if I keep working hard then one day I will shine again.’

Pandya further said, ‘Such an occasion is even more special. We have always believed that victory is achieved only by implementing the plan properly, staying calm during the match and not crumbling under pressure. The entire credit for this goes to Bumrah and other bowlers who bowled well in the last 5 overs. I wanted to give my 100 percent on every ball. I always like playing under pressure. I am most happy for Rahul Dravid.’
