The Australia tour gave me a lot of confidence and I am going to carry that same confidence to England as well. Virat bhaiya always says –‘You have the ability, the ability to play on any wicket and get rid of any batsman.” However, remembering the support he got from Virat Kohli when he lost his father was important for him as it was an extremely tough time for the pacer.

He (Virat) has supported me through thick and thin. He has always been there for me and in all circumstances. I still remember how I was crying in the hotel room. Virat bhaiya came into my room and hugged me tightly and said –‘I am with you, don’t worry.’ Those words encouraged me a lot.” Follow Cricadium Stats, Latest Cricket News, Live Cricket Score and Today Match Prediction Stay updated Indian cricket team with all the cricketing roster, records, history & action.
