After the match Sikandar Raza said, “It is feeling really good. When I got out, there were some demons in my mind. Credit to Shahrukh. It felt good to score a half-century, but if we had lost, I would not have felt so good. This is one of the big stages. You are here and you want to do well. I had two simple games that I had in mind. Jitesh’s wicket was very important. If he had stayed at the crease for 6-8 balls, he would have ended the match himself. But the way Shah Rukh came and hit the first ball for a six, I believed in him.
