After winning the match against West Indies, Suryakumar Yadav was named Player of the Match for his fabulous 76 runs off 44 balls as he shared a few words about his inning for India in the post-match presentation.

"Really happy with the way things went. Was important for someone to bat 15-17 overs after Rohit went back inside. We saw yesterday what happened in the second innings. Was important for someone to bat deep and win the game, that's what I've focussed on. Just backed myself and enjoying it," said Suryakumar Yadav.

"Felt we had to get early wickets. Didn't do that. We felt like we had enough. India bowled well. Wicket was on the slower side, felt it was difficult to keep scoring on it. Would've been a different game had we got early wickets.

We kept losing wickets in the middle overs. We lost the game but did a lot of right things. Felt like we were 10-15 runs short. But early wickets could've changed the game today," Nicholas Pooran was quoted as saying by Cricbuzz.

Besides, during the game, Suryakumar Yadav played a fabulous upper cut off Alzarri Joseph likewise, AB de Villiers used to play. The fans have gone crazy after watching this video.
