India may have already sewed up the three-match T20I series against Afghanistan — its 15th on the trot at home — but speedster Arshdeep Singh believes scorelines do not have an effect on how the team approaches international games.
“We don’t think that because the score is 2-0, the series is over,” the left-arm bowler said on Tuesday ahead of the last tie here. “It’s about trying to improve by 1 or 2 per cent every match and developing new skills. The main motive is to play as per the conditions, get used to the ground and adapt quickly.”
This will be India’s 10th and final T20I as part of the preparations for the T20 World Cup in the United States of America and the Caribbean in June. Arshdeep stated that the bilateral matches have helped define specific roles for specific players.
