India captain Rohit Sharma is happy that his team got to "learn a lot" in their eight-wicket victory over South Africa in a low-scoring chase on a "tricky track" in the first T20 International.
Suryakumar Yadav's unbeaten 50 off 33 balls ensured that India didn't face too many hiccups despite K. L. Rahul's struggles on a track where South Africa were left tottering at 9/5 at the start of the game.
"The wicket was tricky. You learn a lot playing such a game. You understand what the team needs to do in tough conditions. It was nice to play a game like that. We knew the bowlers will get something seeing grass on the pitch, but we didn't expected help for the full 20 overs," Rohit said at the post-match presentation ceremony.
