That means a lot, it’s been a long wait to get that hundred – Jemimah Rodrigues

Speaking about her tickets, Jemimah Rodrigues said it means a lot to her as she waited a long time to get her tone. He said he wanted to be there for the team until the very end. He also spoke about his 183-year partnership with Harleen Deol (89). Speaking after the innings, he said:

“This means a lot. It’s been a long wait to get that hundred. More than anything, I’m glad the team gave me a role at number four and I was able to live up to it. Today the most important La thing for me was to be there until 50 because I know that racing is not a problem.

“But it’s just that feeling of batting all the way through – that was the thought process, and I’m glad I was able to do it. The hundred just came. Initially, it took me a while to get used to the conditions .I know at any time I can speed up, I have this game, but it was important for me to stay there while I was doing this, Harleen was telling me “keep playing, keep playing”.
