Shubman Gill speaks:
"I was just trying to minimize my dot ball percentage. I tried to hit the gaps as much as possible. When I went in, there were a couple of bowlers bowling good. It was crucial to get through that. Once we were settled, we knew we could attack. The bat was pretty good. That's why I changed it after my 50, I wanted to save it. Definitely special (on hitting his maiden international ton). (Playing in this team) It feels great, a great bunch of players. Feels good when you are with the same bunch. My father has been my primary coach. I got a schooling after I got out in the second ODI, so I dedicate this to him."
KL Rahul: Feels good, we came here with good ideas. We wanted to be out in the middle and use this time. They have been very professional, very happy with the result. They took the game deep, we would have liked to finish the game earlier. The bowers were tested and they held their nerves. Fielded about 120 overs, got some time out in the middle with the bat. I am tired, coming back after a couple of months. But this is what we all want to do, playing for India. (On Gill) He's been batting well since the IPL. Very pleasing to the eye. Not seen him over-confident. That requires composure, to show that kind of temperament is good.
Regis Chakabva: Firstly, congratulations to India.
They played really well. Raza and Brad gave a good fight, but India held their nerves. Huge positives from the bowling. The boys fought hard in the field. We came back strongly from a tough situation. Raza was outstanding once again. We definitely take a lot of positives from today, we'll look to play some good cricket Down Under.
Rahul receives the trophy and joins his team-mates and they pose for the photographs behind the 'CHAMPIONS' hoarding. India 3-0 Zimbabwe. That's the scoreline that was predicted and the second-string Indian side have delivered it. Zimbabwe were thrashed in the first two ODIs and were in a precarious situation today as well. However, Raza, with his never-say-die attitude, took his team so close to the finishing line. If only he'd got more support from the top-and-middle-order batters... they might have gained 10 WCSL points. Their next assignment is a 3-match ODI series against Australia away from home. India, on the other hand, will be kick-starting their Asia Cup campaign in less than a week. Plenty of action coming up. On that note, it's curtains down on this series. Until next time, that's all goodbye.
