Dhruv Jurel highlights on his ultimate aim, maintaining composure to win Ranchi Test

After Dhruv Jurel and Shubman Gill took the winning run, the entire dressing room celebrated, and there were smiles all over. In the post-match presentation, the young stumper opened up on the ultimate aim that he had kept in mind to win the Ranchi Test, allowing India to defeat England for the first time in the Bazball era. 

"Whatever the situation demands, I want to do that. In our 1st innings, I thought the more runs I score now, the fewer runs we would have to in our 2nd innings. [First innings] Our wickets were falling, and I was batting with lower-order batters, but we got partnerships with them. So they deserve some credit too. 

"Felt good playing against them [Anderson, Wood in third Test] because I saw them on TV. Focus was on seeing the ball, not the bowler. Gill and I were discussing about making small tasks. To approach the chase in sets of ten runs each," Dhruv Jurel said as quoted by ESPNcricinfo.
