Indian captain Jasprit Bumrah
It is disappointing not to be able to bowl here. There was one bowler less. The bowlers had to take more responsibility. It did not happen that we lost the match one-sidedly. We have a lot to learn. In Test cricket you have to play according to the situation. There is a lot of talent in our group and the young players are full of enthusiasm. The youth have learned a lot from this tour. Congratulations to Australia. They deserve this victory.
