Player of the Match
As a result of his outstanding performance with both bat and ball, Ravichandran Ashwin is named Player of the Match. Ashwin claims that he is pleased with his work because there wasn't much batting left and the game was on the line. He continues by saying that Bangladesh played well and put them under strain, but he praises Shreyas Iyer for his performance and the fact that they were successful.
