An Incredible Feeling As An Opening Batsman – Jason Roy
Jason Roy described his innings as one of the greatest T20 innings he played and said that it will live for a long time in his memory. Roy added that the wicket and fast outfield were ideal for batting, which is a great advertisement for T20 cricket.
“This is my best T20 innings, no doubt about it. Obviously a great wicket and fast outfield, so it’s just a case of trying to hit as many four and sixes and get close to the total [target] and see where we are at. I am sure this will go down for me as one of the greatest, and it will definitely live for a long time in my memory,” Roy said after the match.

“Anytime you are chasing over 200 and you chase that totally – doesn’t matter what the pitch is – it’s still an incredible feeling. For me, in T20 cricket, this is my favourite-ever innings because I was there till the end. I think a lot of time when I am batting as an opening batsman, I could score a hundred and get out needing 20 runs but tonight I was there till the end, which is an incredible feeling as an opening batsman,” he added.
