‘This is the new generation’ - Ravi Bishnoi reveals Suryakumar Yadav’s inspiring words during 3rd T20I vs Bangladesh

Team India beat Bangladesh by a massive margin of 133 runs in the 3rd T20I to win the series with 3-0 margin. Suryakumar Yadav-led side batted first and scored 297 and then restricted Bangladesh to 164/7 from their 20 overs. Ravi Bishnoi was the highest wicket-taker for India with 3 for 30 from his four overs with one maiden over. 

Speaking at the end of the game to Jio Cinema, the 24-year-old revealed what Suryakumar Yadav said to the team. “When we walked into bowl, Suryakumar Yadav told us that we were defending 160-170 and not 300 as it would help us prepare for matches later on which will have such scores. It was a good surface to bat on but that's the mentality we had," said Ravi Bishnoi. 

It was India who won the toss and decided to bat first and Ravi Bishnoi was drafted into the team. Pace bowler Arshdeep Singh was rested for the game as the only change from the previous two matches.

During his chat with Jio Cinema, the 24-year-old also said “This is the new generation, and you can see what the difference is. 298 runs was the target and look how we attacked and bowled them out for 160s. The approach is when you are on the top, be on the top," 

The young spinner also said, “With this Indian team, we have been told by the management that every day is a new day. Once yesterday's match is done it is done, we cannot live with it,". Sanju Samson scored his maiden ton for India in the T20I format on Saturday. The likes of Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, and Riyan Parag also contributed with the bat. 

During the course of the game, Bishnoi also went past 50 T20i wickets for India."I'm feeling great with this small milestone. It's good pressure when you have healthy competition in the team. I wanted to make the most of this opportunity” said India’s young spin sensation. At the age of 24 years and 37 days, Bishnoi became India’s youngest to achieve this feat.
