Following the one-run win, Gill confessed he was ‘pleased’ with the batting as they posted a mammoth score. 

"Definitely very pleased, 210. We always thought on this wicket, we are 10-15 runs above par. It won't be like even when we were batting in the death, it wasn't easy to hit the big boundaries, just hitting, the slowness of the wicket. And we thought if we bowl well, we should be able to win this one. (on his batting) Yes, definitely. Now I just need to sleep and see how I wake up tomorrow," Gill said at the post-match presentation.
