T20 World Cup: After being named Player of the Series in India’s 2-1 T20I triumph over Australia, left-handed opener Abhishek Sharma said they could have got bigger scores in the series, but were satisfied to have done well in the trip. Abhishek amassed 163 runs in three innings at an average of 40.75.
"I've been waiting for this tournament. When I got to know we're going to Australia for T20Is, I was very excited. Have seen throughout my career that Australia is very batting-friendly. I feel we could've gotten bigger scores, but we've done well in the series,” said Abhishek in the post-match presentation ceremony.
He also acknowledged the challenge posed by Josh Hazlewood, praising the Australian pacer’s impact across the series. "The way he (Hazlewood) was bowling, it was beneficial for any team. I've said before that I always enjoy the battle between batters and bowlers. He's a world-class bowler."
