After the historic victory in Perth, Bumrah said, “I am very happy.” They put us under pressure in the first innings, but the way we came back. That was fantastic. I have played here in 2028. I remember the wicket was a little soft in the initial moments. We were really prepared for this match. I told all my fellow players to have faith in their abilities. This is the best Test innings of Jaiswal (Yashaswi Jaiswal) so far. He tested the balls thoroughly during the match. I have never seen Virat (Virat Kohli) out of form. He was looking good in the nets. We always enjoy the support we receive from fans. When we get support from them, we feel good.
