You want to make a good start to your captaincy career with a win and that is what happened. What was impressive was the variation in his bowling. Look how they used Mustafizur. The way he used Mustafizur was absolutely amazing. He kept rotating Deepak Chahar and relied on Tushar Deshpande for the final over. I think given that Tushar Deshpande had conceded 25 runs in an over, he had the opportunity to use another bowler, but he still showed confidence in Tushar Deshpande, and Deshpande did that with a brilliant final over. responded to.” He further added, “So, yes, I think the captaincy was the most impressive. And we see here, of course, he has MS Dhoni around him, who guides him, tells him and encourages him.
