We will Win all & white wash Srilanka ...... Read Who said This!!

"Virat Kohli Speaks With Media"  He wants to win all Oneday Games & go strong in World Cup

 

India captain Virat Kohli on Saturday said  "We treat every game like a knockout game, so I am not thinking about 2-0. We are making plans for every game and trying to execute those plans. That's the kind of mindset we want to build going into a tournament like the World Cup, where, come the knockout stage, you play one knockout game and you're out," said Kohli on the eve of the third ODI in Hyderabad.

 he added "It doesn't really matter what the other team is feeling like, what their strengths and weaknesses are, as long as we are focused on what we want to do. If we improve our areas of concern, oppositions should not matter, and that's the kind of culture and belief we are trying to build into this team now.

He Said "It's all about staying closer as a group, and working on our flaws and our strengths, rather than thinking about the other team. If we are so confident in our ability, we should be able to and we should be good enough to handle situations and all kind of bowling attacks in the world. We are taking this series and the tri-series as a chance to really test ourselves and create targets for ourselves,"
 
On World Cup he said "It's about being ruthless for us, and winning every game. That's the kind of passion all these guys have, it's a matter of bringing it out. We have to keep the team closest to the combination we want to take into the World Cup, and let those guys play their roles better instead of trying to experiment too much at this point of time. It's about finding the perfect combination that we are 100 per cent sure.

India have  three centuries in the first two games from Ajinkya Rahane, Shikhar Dhawan and Ambati Rayudu but Kohli believes in ironing out the flaws even after the resounding wins.

"It's more important when you're winning, to underline the things that you can improve on, and the things that didn't go right in that particular game. What we are trying to achieve is being ruthless, rather than letting situations be. In the past it has happened that we have got eight wickets and then let the last two players just get away with it.

  Mahendra Singh Dhoni was rested for the first three ODIs, Kohli lavished praise on Rayudu for his match-winning unbeaten 121 at Ahmedabad.

"He was quite brilliant at the No. 3 slot. It's about recognizing the batsmen who can bat through and Rayudu is one of those players, who has a different set of skills to bat the full 50 overs and take the team through. I think it was a great show of temperament, character and class that he possesses.
