Rohit Sharma said - This victory is important for us

This victory is very important for us. Pant has gone through difficult times. The way he faced those things is amazing. He likes this format the most. We always knew how capable he is. It was just a matter of giving him game time. We want to make a similar team in any condition. We always want that we do not have a shortage of options in fast bowling or spin. This pitch was quite easy. There was help for fast bowlers here and there was a lot for spinners as well. This was a pitch where you had to show patience. Ashwin is always with you. He keeps telling you what to do and what not to do. I have no words for what he does for the team. He never goes out of the game.

Pant said - I am celebrating my comeback

I really like playing in Chennai. After the injury, I had to make a comeback in all three formats. After that, this was my first Test match. I am celebrating this comeback every day. It was also a bit emotional. I was looking to score well in every match. It is a very good feeling for me to come back to Test cricket again. I got a little emotional after scoring a century, although staying on the field at the end of the day is the most important thing for me. I don't know what people say about me but I understand any situation in my own way. At one point we had lost three wickets on a score of 30 and I was looking to make a partnership. For that, I had a player with me with whom I have a very good relationship.
