After winning the ‘Player of the Match’ award for his sensational performance, Ravi Bishnoi said that it was his dream to represent India in international cricket. He said:

“Feeling better now (no nerves). It’s a dream to play for India and it felt good. I was nervous at the start but wanted to contribute for the team as we know West Indies is one of the strongest teams in T20 cricket.

He added that he never thought about winning the ‘Player of the Match’ award on his T20I debut and labelled it as a dream come true moment for him. He asserted:

“It’s slightly a challenge to grip the ball when there’s dew. I never thought about this (winning the MoM) but it’s a dream come true moment for me.”
