"Actually we were batting brilliantly in all the matches but small mistakes came in our way. Now we are making sure that doesn't happen and we win all our matches," he said.What seems to have influenced Pant's exuberant form is the platform given by teenaged opener Prithvi Shaw's opening blasts and he was effusive in the praise of the U-19 World Cup winning captain.

They (Shaw and Shreyas Iyer) are playing up the order so they have to maintain the run rate. They are doing a pretty good job.""And after that I'm coming in and doing my job. There is no such brief actually. Everyone is just taking the responsibility for the team," he said.
