Like everyone just trains specific, specific bowlers, specific grounds. That was very, very important, and it paid dividends. This first season was just amazing. I think regarding the timing, it's just God's timing It just shows like I wasn't maybe ready last year, and this year I was ready. There were still a few things I needed to work on in my game, and it just gave me a lot of clarity Absolutely thrilled how I did. Very nervous, obviously, playing your first SA20 for a big team, around big players. So, I was just trying to stay present, enjoy it. So, yeah, I'm very happy about that.

I think everyone always talks about a person's presence and aura. When Faf walks into the changing room, everyone just pauses for a second when you look at him. Especially me He's a legend. So, to sit next to him and chat to him about the game, you try to think of questions because you're like, I just want to chat to you and pick your brain. He gave me such valuable advice, and just picking his brain, just how he approached the game for so long. So, that was very, very good You always want to play for your country. And after the SA20, I was like, OK, I think now my chances are even better now to get into the mix. But, it always comes as a surprise You never know how close you are. And I think that's the biggest thing. Playing in India's A-series last year also, someone got injured I'm the type of player that I would hope I have a big role on every single team. I like the responsibility of being a big player and putting my hand up in difficult situations. It's so nice to have responsibility. And you grow so much as a player to be in that situation and actually put your hand up for the team. It's so nice to have responsibility.
