India skipper Rohit Sharma on Thursday lauded the team for their comfortable 47-run victory over Afghanistan, attributing the clinical all-round display to better planning which was possible due to extensive knowledge about local conditions. India dished out a superlative show as they posted 181-8 and then returned to dismiss Afghanistan for 134 to register a comfortable 47-run win.

“The last two years we’ve played T20s here, so we understand the conditions and planned accordingly. We adapted well and got 180, which was a great effort from the batters. We had class bowlers who defended it perfectly,” Rohit said. “Everyone came in and did their job, that’s critical and we dwell on it. SKY [Suryakumar Yadav] and Hardik’s [Pandya] partnership was critical at that point, we needed someone to bat deep which they did.”
