Indian skipper Virat Kohli is fresh from the success of the recent series against Australia. Speaking of the same, Kohli had said that the team has learnt to take away the toss from the equation.
“We spoke after the World Cup, the way we exited, you can’t always look for a situation that should go your way at the toss. If we like chasing as a team, it doesn’t mean we press the panic button if we lose the toss. We have to stay composed to put in strong performances. We’ve literally taken the toss out of the equation, and we’re as prepared as possible to do something the opposition asks us to do,” he was quoted as saying.
“That’s been the difference, even if we lose the toss, we have the belief that we can play expressive cricket to get results our way. The last six or eight months have been a revelation and the younger guys stepping up is a very good sign for Indian cricket,” he further added.
India will next play New Zealand. New Zealand will host India for 5 T20s, 3 ODIs and 2 Tests beginning on January 24.
