The way he batted, it was brilliant to see him from the dressing room. We all knew 255 was a good score. We knew our fielding was good. Bhajji paji and Axar Patel bowled well. I was looking to stay calm, but inside I was nervous. It could have gone either way. All credit to both the batsmen and the bowlers,&rdquo; said Rahane.<\/p>\n<p>Rayudu, who was man-of-the-match, said it was very tough to bat in the morning. &ldquo;I and Ajinkya were batting well until he got out. I am happy that I took the responsibility. I was just telling (Stuart) Binny to hold back a bit till the 42nd over as we couldn&#8217;t afford to lose wickets then,&rdquo; said Rayudu.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile Zimbabwe captain Chigumbura said: &ldquo;It was disappointing to lose the game after getting so close. I thought it was a good wicket to bat on, but we kept losing wickets. Losing wickets in groups made the difference. It is also good to score runs and hopefully I can carry on and win for the team.&rdquo;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignleft size-full wp-image-13272\" src=\"https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/ambati-rayudu.jpg\" alt=\"ambati rayudu\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;
