“After hitting the century against England in Pune, I thought if I continue with the same performance, there is a possibility of getting man of the series (award),” he said, in an interaction with media here yesterday. “I think the ODI series against England is the turning point of my cricketing career,” said the Pune batsman, who made 120 off 76 balls in the exciting run-chase.
The performance during New Zealand series gave him confidence, he said. “Though I did not score big, whatever runs I scored, it gave me immense confidence.... Before this series (against England), I had a gut feeling that I will perform, and I think, for any player, having such a feeling is most important thing,” he said.
Asked about getting the opportunity to play for India a little late in his career, he said, “I got the opportunity late because I was not mature enough, there were flaws in my game. The moment I became accomplished player, I got the opportunity and I am happy that I could convert it (into success).”
