“I thought we were gone at one stage. I told our coach that they deserved to win. The way Kane (Williamson) was batting, on 95. Feel bad for him, I know what it’s like to play those knocks when things don’t go your way. On the last ball, we had a discussion and we came to a conclusion that we had to hit the stumps,” Kohli said during the post-match presentation.

Williamon did all he could with the bat, both in the run chase (95 off 48 balls) and the Super Over (11), but still it did not prove to be enough for the home side.

“Super Overs haven’t been too good for us, so we probably need to try and do better in regular time,” Williamson said. “It was a much better performance all round. We fought back well with the ball after their start. Both sides maximised the slightly shorter side towards the scoreboard.”

“Pretty disappointing, losing after an effort like that, but it’s a game of small margins,” he said. “Throughout the three balls, we’ve seen India, with their experience, stand up in the big moments, and we must learn from them. It was nice to spend some time in the middle, build some partnerships with the guys, and try and take the game deep,” he added.
