Ravindra Jadeja said, “Was a day game so the wicket was slow. It was expected to be slow because it was quite warm. Wanted to build a partnership of 30-40 so that we have a platform for the end. The bowlers bowled well. Always looks a flat wicket in powerplay. But as the ball gets older, it doesn’t come on very well. When you’re playing at a new venue, you don’t have an idea of how the pitch will be. Felt we were 15-20 short. My role is to build a partnership if we lose early wickets.”
