‘I feel I am playing my best cricket,’ says Virat Kohli.

Indian batsman Virat Kohli showed confidence in his batting before stepping out to play on the fifth day of the World Test Championship (WTC) final as he feels he is at his best across all formats of the game.

In a video released by the ICC, Virat Kohli said, ‘I feel I am playing my best cricket again in all formats of the game.’ Australia had set India a mammoth target of 444 runs to chase after batting brilliantly in both the innings. If the Indian batsmen successfully achieve this target, they will create history as it will be the biggest run chase by any team in the history of Test cricket.

“I find it motivating to know that in every game I play for India, I get a chance to win for my team, I don’t think there is any greater motivation in sport,” he told the ICC.

“I wake up every morning of any game that I play with the belief that I am going to be the guy who is going to win my team. Helps the team.” out there,” said Virat.

The former Indian captain said that he wakes up every morning thinking that he is a team man.

He said, “I still wake up every morning with the belief that I can be the man on the team.”
