“I was very unhappy when I went back to the pavilion, but when I saw towards Jadeja he seemed to be very confident and positive,” Indian Captain had told at the post-match ceremony on Sunday.
India won the third ODI to clinch the three-match series 2-1, having won the three-match T20 International rubber 2-1 earlier this month.
