It was just a matter of time. The last couple of months have been really good. To come out here and perform the way I have is really pleasing. All credit to our bowlers for making our job easy. I knew I could go out there, take my time and play proper cricketing shots. It was a challenge for me to remain calm and play my natural game. I&#8217;m not thinking about West Indies yet. What&#8217;s on my mind right now is to switch to the T20 format.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Indian skipper MS Dhoni said, &ldquo;I think the execution has been really good, and that&#8217;s the key factor. The fast bowlers and the spinners took wickets and put pressure. So I&#8217;m happy with the bowling performance. I don&#8217;t mind winning games easily. That&#8217;s what you are supposed to do. Yes, it would have been nice if a few of the other batsmen would have had a break. I think after a long time, I will take some time off cricket after this series (T20Is).&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Zimbabwe skipper Graeme Cremer said, &ldquo;We didn&#8217;t see through the new ball to put up 260-270 which we thought was par. We got stuck in middle period, and then lost the grip. We just couldn&#8217;t rotate the strike and that put pressure on our batsmen. We have a T20I squad, and we know we can challenge good teams on our day. We&#8217;ll have to pick ourselves up to try and compete in that series.&rdquo;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignleft size-full wp-image-27410\" src=\"https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/KL-Rahul.jpg\" alt=\"KL Rahul\" width=\"250\" height=\"159\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;
