The New Zealand captain said that the star Indian batter’s innings was the difference between the two sides, adding that Team India were outstanding.
“We didn’t get momentum with the ball, didn’t get enough wickets and didn’t get momentum with the bat either. It was frustrating. Again, I’ll say about Suryakumar, his innings was the difference. It did swing a bit (in the chase) and India did well to get some swing. Important to look at those few areas and improve. Need to look at the small margins. Sometimes, special innings can happen, Surya is the best player in the world,” he added.
India scored 72 runs in the final 5 overs, and Suryakumar was the architect of the team’s impressive showing. He batted with the utmost class and originality against Lockie Ferguson, Adam Milne, and Tim Southee.India’s second-innings Deepak Hooda delivered a standout performance and took four wickets to dismantle New Zealand’s middle order.
