Gill was out for 64 and 43 in the first two games and was "disappointed" that he frittered away the solid starts. "I was disappointed with how I got out in the first two matches.

I tried to rotate strike. After the rain break, we let our instincts take over. I just wanted one more over when we walked out before the last break," said the flamboyant right-handed batter, who remained stranded on 98 when rain played spoilsport.

Gill, who remained not out on his career-best score, said had he got one more over he would have definitely reached the three-figure mark. "It was bittersweet (mission century).

I was expecting to get 100. It was not under my control as it rained, but I was happy with my innings," he said in the post-match presentation ceremony here on Wednesday after India made a 3-0 series sweep over the West Indies on Wednesday.
