England series memorable, Dhoni priceless, says Kohli

TIL Desk Sports/ Ecstatic after India beat England in all three formats of the game in their tour of the country, captain Virat Kohli, on Wednesday termed the entire series as a memorable one with a lot of positives for the national cricket team going forward.

“It’s a memorable series win for us, the whole tour. It’s been a brilliant couple of months for the Indian team, going forward we know exactly what to do in each format,” Kohli said after India beat England by 75 runs in the third and final T20 International match in Bengaluru. India had beaten England 4-0 in the five-match Test series, 2-1 in the three-game ODI contest before clinching a 2-1 win in the three T20 International matches.

Kohli paid tributes to his senior colleagues, including Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh, for their guidance in the limited overs series. “It’s not a bad thing when you have MS Dhoni behind the stumps and experienced guys like Ashu bhai (Ashish Nehra) and Yuvi pa (Yuvraj Singh). I am new to limited overs cricket and they have been around long before me. I’m taking advice from them whenever possible, they’re so intelligent, a lot of credit goes to them,” Kohli said.
