“We spoke about it that we will take one series at a time, one match at a time, one session at a time,” Anil Kumble said. “To come back from 1-0 down, when you could see there were tired bodies around, it was brilliant.”

“Rahane led the team brilliantly after losing the toss,” he further added. “The fast bowlers throughout the season have bowled brilliantly. The positives have been adapting to conditions.”
