“I have been waiting for this day and I am very fortunate that I am going to wear the yellow jersey. As I said, I've always been wearing dark colours like black, blue, brown, but yellow, definitely, great feeling to wear that jersey. Honestly, I never thought about how I would feel wearing the CSK jersey. I felt very positive and happy, felt very different. A different energy comes while wearing that jersey. I felt like a champion, I felt like 'ok wow!'”
