The game requires less practice to understand and play. It is enough to do what I have done before. However, some areas need improvement to perform better in the competition. It depends on evolution.

I play slow sweep shots against spin bowlers.' He did not take separate training for this. But I have played before. There is a need to play aggressively against the spin ball. I know that I have to take risks. I took it with a decisive decision. ' I also tried to keep the strike rate right. This helped me and the team. Honestly, we were not in a good position in the first part of the series.

At one time we reached a point where we said, 'Don't look at the points table, let's play for self-respect.'

We decided to raise our level and play for glory as a team. After this the confidence came back and now we are moving forward. If this speed had been available a week earlier, we would not have been in a position to depend on so many factors. Virat Kohli said this.
