Virat is also shocked that Rishabh Pant is stumping so fast
After winning the match in Chennai, Virat Kohli said, ‘It was very strange to play on an empty field in the first match at home. For the first two days there we were pretty flat, with no energy in the field. But we have improved our body language since the second innings of the first game. The audience’s return made a huge difference. The match is an example of patience and courage, which has been shown by this team and the audience has been a big part of it. Chennai’s viewers are quite intelligent and understand their cricket very well. When the bowler needed his support during the 15 to 20 minute break, he did his job well. The conditions were challenging for both teams, but we played better than the bat. We were not intimidated and impatient to see the turn and bounce, which is why we scored 600 in this match.
IND vs ENG: After the Chennai win, Virat Kohli praised Rishabh Pant, saying how he improved his wicket-keeping
Kohli said the toss was not important in this match. He said, ‘If you tell the truth, there was no big roll in the toss in this match because if you look at the second innings, we have scored 300 runs. It doesn’t matter who favors the toss. Both teams were in the game from the first session, be it a spinning track or a fast one and it was the same in this game. England’s batsmen looked more helpless than Akshar and Ashwin, and the team repeatedly lost wickets. In the last match of the match, Moin Ali scored 43 off 18 balls while batting, but this was not enough to prevent the team from losing.
