A Dream Series Victory: Reflections of Cricketer Will Young

In less than 24 hours since he clinched the Player of the Series award, New-Zealand cricketer Will Young is still basking in the glory of an unforeseen series victory over India. 


He recalls the jubilant celebrations with teammates post-match over beers and soft drinks, joking that festivities extended "past bedtime". There are hints of restrained joy and humor throughout, glimpses of a character known for his measured and thoughtful demeanor. The previous evening, Young's calm, collected way of speaking had led to a whimsical proposal that he'd be perfect for a podcast.


The win is even more poignant for Young given his own exceptional journey, reflecting the major strides New Zealand made through the series, consistently astonishing everyone including themselves. After an unbeaten 48 in a challenging Bengaluru chase and twin fifties in Mumbai, Young was unexpectedly awarded Player of the Series – a realization that came as somewhat of a surprise, even to him. 


Nonetheless, Young understands the rationale behind the decision. Recognizing standout performances by both teams, he muses, "I guess it was just an award that awarded consistency, really."
