An ecstatic Indian captain Virat Kohli termed the Test series victory in Australia as his biggest achievement till date, rating it higher than the World Cup triumph at home in 2011.
“This achievement is top of the pile, when I won the World Cup, I was the youngest member of the team. I saw everyone get emotional but didn’t feel it then, here after coming three times I know how tough it is. This is where the transition began and to win four years later is special” he said in post match presentation.
“The way the bowlers have dictated and dominated, not here but also in England and South Africa, it’s something I haven’t seen before. The discussion is always about how to take wickets, and then they dictate their plans to me. It’s a revelation in Indian cricket, and something for the bowlers at home to learn. These guys will be looked up to for a long, long time, and they deserve to break the record of the West Indian fast bowlers.”
“Every team goes through a transition, their dominance kept world cricket exciting for so many years. They’ll regroup as a side and play some good exciting cricket in the future,” he said on Australia.
