The atmosphere of the team opened up. And the team has been helpful. I know a lot of talk was going on. I kissed my ring. You see me standing here because there's one person who sacrificed things for me. That's Anushka. This The century is for him and also for our daughter Vamika."

He continued, "When you have someone who is talking about keeping things in perspective, like Anushka has been, it's a big deal. When I came back, I wasn't dejected. Six weeks off. After that I refreshed. I realized how tired I was. Competition doesn't allow it, but this break allowed me to enjoy the game again."
