<\/figure>\n\n\n\nAs for the match, India set a target of 557 runs for England on a placid pitch with more than four sessions left in the game. However, the visitors folded inside 40 overs for 122 to give India a 2-1 lead in the series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe have won a lot of matches on such wickets before. The turning tracks and on pitches where the ball turns remain our strength. It gives us balance,\u201d Rohit told the media after the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe have given results for many years and we will get results in the future as well. But we don’t have control over certain things \u2014 we don’t discuss whether we want rank turners or not. We come here (at the venues) two days before the match and how much can we do anyway in two days? \u201cThe curators decide and make the pitch. We have the strength to play on any wicket and win on it. When we won the Test in South Africa (at Cape Town), everyone knows what kind of wicket it was,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rohit said the Indian team has found a way through all conditions witnessed in the first three Tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c(In) the last three Tests we played, there were different challenges. In the first Test (Hyderabad), the ball was spinning and the pitch was slow. In Vizag, it was (keeping) low. As the game progressed, the wicket became slower. Here, it played well for the first three days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cToday, we saw that the ball was turning and it was low. This is (in) the nature (of pitches), we get pitches like these in India. But if we get rank turners, we will play on them as well,\u201d Rohit added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The India skipper said Sarfaraz Khan has acquired enough experience in domestic cricket that the team management did not feel the need to have discussed any plans with him before he made his debut here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI haven’t seen Sarfaraz bat that much. But all the people I’ve heard from, the players who are from Mumbai, (that) he’s made runs in a lot of difficult situations for Mumbai,\u201d Rohit said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe’s hungry for runs and for the last 4-5 years, he’s continuously made runs in domestic cricket, so (that means) he’s doing something good,\u201d Rohit said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe didn’t discuss any plans with him. Because I know that if you let him be, he’ll do his your job, which I’ve heard from the players from Mumbai,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
