He was also adjudged player of the match after the match, but in commentary Rohan Gavaskar said of him that he looked "rusty". Regarding this, Alan Wilkins said in the match presentation, "I think the word 'rusty' came up in the commentary, maybe Rohan Gavaskar said so. He would agree, but how did you feel? The more you bowled. do, the more you find your rhythm?"

On this question, Deepak Chahar, after getting the Player of the Match, said, "Before coming here I played some practice matches. I played 4-5 matches, but when you are playing for your country, you have to give your 100 percent. Have to give. I think body and mind were not working together in the first few overs, but after that everything was fine." Deepak Chahar was seen in the first few overs that he was not able to land properly, but as he bowled, he appeared to be in good rhythm.
