India in England: Virat Kohli desires his crew to go for the win and never give up vs England

India captain Virat Kohli opened up on the upcoming five-match Test sequence vs England, saying it takes ‘relentless madness’ and single-minded pursuit of excellence to win a Test sequence within the UK.

Led by Kohli, India will tackle Joe Root’s England in a grueling five-match Test sequence, starting right here from Wednesday.”I will answer your second question first, it takes relentless madness and pursuit of excellence every day over a five-Test series, to tell yourself I want to do the hard work and I want to get into situations, which are tough in every Test match on every day.”And you will be prepared for that form of workload, and that form of psychological load,” Kohli told ‘Sky Sports’ when asked by former India wicket-keeper Dinesh Karthik on what it takes to win a Test series in England.For Kohli personally, winning in England is nothing more than winning anywhere else and it is all about the team culture of going for a win.”To reply your first query, for me personally, it means nothing greater than successful a Test match or a Test sequence wherever else on the earth.”As I said, for me, these things are not anecdotes in my career or milestones in my career.”We step on the sphere and we compete and we need to win each Test match, that’s what issues extra to me, as a result of once more that may be a tradition, these are outcomes,” added Kohli, one of the finest batsmen of the modern era.”For Indian cricket, it will likely be an enormous factor and now we have performed it earlier than and we are able to do it once more, however this tradition is what’s extra pricey to me and I’ll do all the things in my skill, even when you lose a Test match.”I want us to go for the win and not surrender and try to save a test match on day three or day four, that for me is just not acceptable.””So, for me as I said, milestones don’t matter at all. If I had played for milestones in my career, I probably would not have half of what I have right now. My mindset is pretty clear and for us it is just pursuit of excellence,” he signed off.READ MORE | India in England: Mayank Agarwal dominated out of first Test as a consequence of concussionREAD MORE | Anushka Sharma will get clicked in UK by her largest fan Virat Kohli
