“He has the talent, he has shown us in the past that he is ready. Came and batted sensibly. The temperament was also tested, at no stage he was panicking. The chats we had were to remind him that ‘you belong here. You have done the hard yards, enjoy your time here,” Rohit said on Yashasvi Jaiswal.

“The results speak for themselves, they have been doing it for a while. There isn’t much to tell them, it is about giving them the freedom to express. The experience these guys have on pitches like this is always a luxury,” Sharma said.

“Both Ash and Jadeja were superb, specially Ashwin for coming out and bowling this way was class. Always nice to start well, it is a fresh cycle. We weren’t too worried about the pitch, we wanted to come here and get results,” the Indian captain added.

The juggernaut now moves to Trinidad and Tobago as the 2nd Test starts from July 20 at the Queen’s Park Oval.
