With the help of captain Virat Kohli’s record-breaking innings and 35th ODI century, India defeated South Africa by 8 wickets in the sixth and final one day on Friday to take the series 5-1. India won this first series on South African soil and this is the biggest win outside the subcontinent.
After the match, when Virat was asked that this is India’s biggest victory over foreign soil, Kohli responded in such a way that everyone was shocked. Kohli said, you can answer this only because 1 month ago we were a very bad team according to your reports and now such questions are being asked. We did not change our mindset, our full attention remained on the game and now I do not want to get trapped by answering it. Our job is to play only, work hard and win every match.
Kohli was asked again if he is now called the best batsman in the World’s cricket, he said, “As I said, I do not want to speak much more about it. I do not even want to be in the headlines. I just want to play my role well. It depends on people what they feel.”
