Speaking at the post-match presentation, Abhishek Sharma said (as quoted by Cricbuzz) "We have been doing this for the last 2 years.

The Punjab lad also explained that his attacking batting depends on having a clear process and knowing which bowlers he wants to target. He credited the head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Shreyas Iyer for backing this high-risk batting style.
Abhishek added that he does not want to restrict himself to any particular area, so he simply focuses on watching the ball and hitting it while making the most of the power play.
The Indian opener signed off by saying, "I feel I don't want to restrict any area. I just want to go and express myself. I don't want to force the ball. I just want to see and hit the ball. As I said before as well, you can't be sure all the time that you will do well. We have built a culture in the team that we need to maximize the power play."
