India secured a 17-run victory over the Netherlands in the T20 World Cup match held in Ahmedabad on Wednesday. India posted a total of 193 runs for six wickets, while the Netherlands managed only 176 for seven in their 20 overs. Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav expressed his happiness after the win in the final group stage match, noting that there are lessons to be learned from the victory and that the team gained valuable insights from the game. He emphasized that they have sufficient firepower with players like Hardik, Shivam, Rinku, Axar, and Washi to effectively finish matches.

After the game, Suryakumar Yadav mentioned, "Obviously, we wanted to bat first. We scored 193 runs. There was a bit of dew during bowling, which made things challenging for the bowlers, but overall, I am very happy with the outcome."

When asked if he was pleased with winning the toss and batting first despite the dew, Surya responded, "Absolutely. We might face similar conditions in the future. Even if we have a slow start, it's crucial for all batsmen to understand their responsibilities and assess how the wicket is playing in the middle overs. Later, we have enough firepower—whether it's Hardik, Shivam, Rinku, Axar, or Washi-to close out the game effectively."

Regarding Shivam Dubey, he said, "He played a brilliant innings against New Zealand in Vizag. He aimed for the Man of the Match award that day but fell short. Today, I think his batting in the middle overs eased the pressure on everyone and helped accelerate the score. Chasing over 190 on this pitch was a very good effort."

On whether the team performed well overall, Surya stated, "You could say we checked almost all the boxes, but even with a win, there are lessons to be learned. We've identified some areas to improve. We'll analyze everything tomorrow after a break and discuss it." 

Regarding their multiple bowling options, Surya said, "It's sometimes a good headache. I have several bowlers in the middle overs—Abhishek Sharma, Hardik, Dubey—and plenty of choices. I'm very happy with how everything is progressing. Contributions are coming from almost every batsman. That's the way I want it—building small partnerships, especially when the game gets tense, which can work in our favor."
