Excerpts from the interaction

On his two wickets for 43 runs in an important game

Obviously, I’m very happy with the way things have turned out today and I just want to thank all my gurus – Guru Nank Dev ji, Shri Guru Ramdas ji, Sant Baba, Baba Pikhval wale Babaji and everyone who supported us and gave [us] the blessings to win this important game.

On being relieved after the win

Well, obviously this was like a final. Whenever India and Pakistan play, the pressure is double in that match. Today was a big match not just for us, our team but for the Pakistani team and I think we bowled really well we fielded really well and we deserve the win today. I think we played some good cricket overall today. I’m really happy and excited to be going to Mumbai and playing the final in front of my second home crowd which is Mumbai because I play for Mumbai Indians. So [I’m] looking forward to going there and hopefully we will repeat the same performance there.
