Shreyas Iyer:
I had been in this situation before as well, not with the Indian team but with my Ranji team. Mindset was to play the session and play as many balls as possible. I wasn't thinking too far ahead, was just focusing on the present. (On being the first Indian to score a 💯 & a 50 in debut Test) Yeah, I knew about it. When I came back, one of my teammates told me about it. Yeah, many others have done it from other teams but I was told I am the first from India. It feels good but the most important thing is to win the match. Rahul Dravid Sir had told me to bat as many balls as possible & I was determined to do that. We felt that 250 including the first innings lead would have been a good score, so we're very happy with where we are now. Actually, not a lot was happening with the wicket today, the ball was keeping a bit low. The talk was to get to a competitive total & I feel that it's a really good total. We have real spin power, so hopefully we can get the job done tomorrow."
