"It wasn't an easy pitch today" - Team India captain Rohit Sharma after beating South Africa in 2023 World Cup match in Kolkata

At the post-match presentation, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma reflected on the comprehensive win, saying:

"If we look at how we fared in the last three games, we played quite better, in terms of adapting to the situation. We were put under a little bit of pressure against England. We lost three wickets upfront, and then we got ourselves collected and got a decent score, and then the seamers did the job for us.

"The last game as well, we lost the wicket in the first over, and then we stitched a very good partnership and got to a good score again, and then again, the seamers came to the party."

He added:

"It wasn't an easy pitch today, you needed someone like Kohli to bat the situation. Not to forget Shreyas Iyer as well, creating that partnership for us and getting the runs on the board. We knew we had the runs on the board, it was time to keep the ball in the right areas, which we did."

India will next face the Netherlands team next Sunday (November 12) at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
