He opined that it was a good batting wicket but gave credit to Surya for taking advantage of it and playing some outstanding shots.Rashid said:"It is a good wicket to bat on. As always we've seen here 200+ has been chased here as well. But the way Surya played was just unbelievable. The way he played all around the ground it was pretty hard on the bowlers. Some of the shots were pretty unbelievable."He added:"I think we bowled well. I think it's a good track and we should go with a positive mindset and make sure we enjoy. The only thing was to keep hitting the right length and mixing it up for the batters. Dew was there definitely. It has just started increasing more and more."Rashid Khan was the lone shining light in GT's bowling attack as he scalped four wickets.
