After bagging the Player of the match and series awards, teen Indian batter Vaibhav Sooryavanshi rated the achievement a "dream come true" moment for him and thanked the team management for allowing him to pursue his natural T20 game. Sooryavanshi ended the three-match series against Zimbabwe with 151 runs from three innings, averaging 50.33. In the first T20I, the left-hander made a rollicking 19-ball 50 and he made a more sober 49-ball 81 in the third game, playing a big hand in India's 3-0 series sweep over the African side.

"It felt very good. It is a dream come true for me. First man of the match and man of the series. The preparation here has been good," Sooryavanshi said in the post-match presentation ceremony. "Everyone backed me, including the coach and the captain. I tried to play my usual T20 game and tried to give the team a good start and then play a long innings if I manage a good start. "I played the U19 World Cup here (in Harare) as well and I feel good playing here. What I do in practice, I try to replicate that in the matches," he added. India skipper Shreyas Iyer was a relieved man after the team registered its first series win under him. India had lost to Ireland and England before arriving in Zimbabwe.
