Virat Kohli said “I was very sad that I got out to a full toss. I’ve been performing excellently. I told the boys in the locker room that 175 was sufficient for this pitch. It became significantly slower. We worked hard to achieve that result and thought it was sufficient. Those are the balls I’ve consistently covered when I’ve played my best cricket. The bowlers are under pressure when I catch their best deliveries. I trust myself to make accurate shots, and when they do, they look fantastic“.
