With this win, Rohit Sharma and co. have sealed their berth in the semi-finals of the tournament, despite having one game left against New Zealand.

Shreyas Iyer wanted India to finish game against Pakistan

Speaking at the post-match press conference, Iyer opined that it would been a convincing win if India had managed to finish the match a little earlier. He asked the journalists how many balls were left at the end of the match. Shreyas said that India could have finished the match much earlier if they had played aggressively.

“I think we could have won a bit earlier. It would have been a convincing win. if we could have played more aggressively, we could have won a bit earlier,” Iyer said.

Iyer scored 56 runs off 67 deliveries, including five fours and one six. He heaped praise on Pakistan’s leg spinner Abrar Ahmed for troubling him throughout his spell. Shreyas revealed that his attempts to sweep and reverse sweep once he was settled against the bowler worked wonders for him.

“I think Abrar bowled brilliantly. It was important and crucial for me to play out that spell and rotate the strike at the same time. it took some time and then once my eyes were set, I thought that sweep and reverse sweep would have been a great option to put them on the back foot. And I think that worked pretty well for me,” Iyer added.
