NEW DELHI : "A victory is like winning a million verbal duels," is how India's ODI captain MS Dhoni has summed up the tri-series win in Australia.
"We gave it back to them, and how!" he was quoted as saying in the latest edition of 'Tehelka' magazine.
"I believe in action more than words. I was repeatedly hounded by Indian reporters, who wanted my reaction on repeated insinuations by some top members of the Australian team. But I said nothing. The best answer is your performance", he said.
"I knew we would win and hence, refrained from reacting. I knew we would give it back to them at an appropriate time," he added.
Asked how he felt to actually see his hero Adam Gilchrist retire during the series, Dhoni said: "I felt sad, really sad. But then, I also felt happy because he would be a part of the IPL and we will have more of this legendary cricketer. He is not finished yet".
