Wriddhiman Saha rated his 117 run knock against Australia as his best Test knock so far. He also said the support he is getting from his teammates has had a positive influence on his batting.

Saha played a key role along with Cheteshwar Pujara (202) to hand India a first innings lead of 152.

"This is the best century among the three I have. We badly needed partnership. My partnership began slowly. One of the best," Saha said at the press conference.

"Pujara always backed me to play my shots and told me to be positive. I had the same approach here. He told me to break it up and think of small, small partnerships of 10-20 runs each. I just backed my strength and showed respect to good balls" says wicketkeeper batsman.

"I didn't really change the way I batted. The truth is I'm backing myself more now, I used to have doubts early in my career. Our team is supporting me. It have a good effect on me." says Saha.
