Speaking on the post-match show to Prime Video, Williamson said:“Incredible knock by Latham. Absolutely on fire. We're talking in the middle about getting through this over and that over. And then he just flicked a switch. Incredible innings. It was an over or two where he flicked a switch. We got that big over and he just kept going.""One of the more special ODI knocks I've seen," he added. "It was a very good wicket. Spin played a big role as we saw. Nice to get a win. When we started seeing it turn like it did, you think a number of things. But I thought the seamers did a very good job."Debutant Umran Malik was the pick of the bowlers for India, returning with two wickets, while Shardul Thakur settled for one wicket. The hosts chased down the target with 17 balls to spare to take a 1-0 lead in the series.The action will now shift to Hamilton for the second ODI on Sunday, November 27.
