Hardik Pandya dished out another masterclass as his late blitzes allowed India to leave Bangladesh rattled. As the Men in Blue completed a clean sweep of the visitors, Pandya won the Player of the Series award for his all-round display, scoring 118 runs and claiming a wicket.

Talking at the post-match presentation, Pandya underlined how the support from the management has helped him to express without a shadow of doubt. He also revealed that the air in the Indian dressing room is light enough and that is what propelled the Men in Blue to such wonderful performances.

Pandya said, “The kind of freedom the skipper and the coach has given, that has been fantastic to the whole group. That is coming to all the players who are playing. At the end of the day, this sport, if you can enjoy, that's the best way you can get maximum out of yourself.”

He further added, “When the dressing room is enjoying, when everyone's enjoying everyone's success, you feel like doing more. I think that has contributed a lot. Body has been fantastic, God has been kind to help me out. The process continues, nothing changes.” When asked about his best short of the day, he said, “Over the covers when I just chipped it.”
