All of us played extremely well. We have to be very, very proud of ourselves. Please don’t feel sad or down. Feel as happy as we feel whenever we come to the change room. We are on a high, so maintain the high. The main thing is the energy in all of us. And I think we have great energy on the field. We have lovely energy here; personally, also everybody is bonding together. So please continue. All the best,” SRK further added, emphasizing the need to channel the team’s positive energy moving forward.
