Kohli breaks down batting masterclass against South Africa
Delving into his psyche, going into the series decider, the former India skipper added, “It’s always brought the best out of us over the years. That’s what we play our cricket for.
“You don’t want it to be 1-1. But when it is 1-1, and it’s a decider, you get excited. I want to make a play today.
“I want to make a dent into the game. And I want to do something special for the team. That’s what we have always done over so many years. And that’s why we have been able to play for so long.”
Furthermore, Kohli also expressed his elation on starring with the bat alongside former India skipper Rohit Sharma, who also shone with the bat, scoring 146 runs across the three games, including two half-centuries.
Speaking after the third ODI, Kohli conceded, “I am just happy that both of us (Rohit and himself) continue to do so even now and help the team.”
India will next feature in a five-match T20I series against South Africa starting December 9.
