Speaking after the draw, Shubman Gill was happy with the team’s performance and said the whole team executed their plans very well in the second game at the Sinhalese Sports Club Ground, Colombo. It is the first Test series win for the team under the India captain in a two- or more-Test match series. He praised the whole team for their amazing effort.
Later on, Devdutt Padikkal was once again the anchor at No. 3, playing a superb knock of 117 runs off 193 balls, as he continued his purple patch in this series. He yet again showcased his domestic playing experience and smacked 12 boundaries in the innings. He stitched a 120-run partnership with skipper Shubman Gill, who came back in form and scored a fifty.
Sonal Dinusha the hero for Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka had the worst start as they lost 8/2, but debutant Pasindu Sooriyabandara and Sonal Dinusha stepped up big for the side as, in the first innings, when the chips were down, the two played stunning knocks; the former scored 80 runs, and the latter continued his golden form in the series, scoring a hundred.
Shubman Gill praised Devdutt Padikkal and KL Rahul as they were good in this series, and he also backed his bowlers and was happy with their performances, and mentioned that he is happy with the way Manav Suthar has been developing.
"Our bowlers were good, they bowled really well. Very excited, really exciting times for us. Need to be consistent with our preparations. So far there have been a lot of positives for us. Suthar is consistent, how well he releases the ball, I think he's going to be crucial for us in the upcoming years."

"Yes, we are going to New Zealand, so that'll be a good series for us and then a good home season. We'll keep believing and hopefully we'll make it to the WTC final. Like I said, SL played brilliantly."
"In hindsight you can think [about the follow-on], but you can only talk about these things in hindsight. You take the best decision you can in the moment and some thing didn't go our way. But it was a brilliant game and I think Test cricket won today."
