It&#39;s not easy for a spinner to bowl with the new ball, so hats off to him,&quot; Rohit, who was adjudged the man-of-the-match for his blistering 61-ball 89, said at the post-match presentation ceremony.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;Washington has been courageous to take the ball from me, not afraid to flight the ball, and he&#39;s very clear on what he wants to execute. That allows me to breathe easy.&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;When a bowler knows what field to set, that talks a lot about that individual. He bowled well against Sri Lanka as well. The rest of the bowlers executed their plans perfectly too at the back end,&quot; he added.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nCommenting on his own innings, which was long due, considering his slump in Sri Lanka, Rohit said: &quot;The pitch wasn&#39;t the usual wicket, and the ball was gripping. It wasn&#39;t easy to hit on the up as well, so I decided to take some time getting set.&quot;<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;I knew the new batsmen would find it tough. (Suresh) Raina&#39;s been in terrific form too, so hope he does well in the final too,&quot; he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>IANS<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Image - Google Search<\/p>\r\n",
