"I didn't think the wicket would spin this much" - Team India captain KL Rahul

Speaking after the conclusion of the match, KL Rahul reflected on the victory that was aided by the turning wicket:

"I didn't think the wicket would spin this much when I went into bat or saw the wicket in the morning. But the quality of finger spinners in your team does help you. Defending 400 gives you a bit of confidence and it was a different game after it started spinning."

About the squad, he said:

"It's a headache for the coach and Rohit when he comes back. The roles are clear whoever gets picked up. Sitting out can be hard after scoring a lot of runs and that's how it works. We dropped a couple of catches and it's hard to get used to the lights when you are traveling every two days. Fielding is directly related to how fit and fresh you are."

He added:

"The guys coming back from the break need some game time. They have been playing a lot of cricket but it's important for them to score some runs and get to bowl a few overs. Everyone has to wait for the opportunity."

India and Australia will square off in the final ODI of the series on Wednesday (September 27) in Rajkot.
