Virat Kohli is well-known for displaying feelings on the pitch and his animated response after smashing Mark Wood for a six over the fine-leg fence throughout the ultimate T20I in Ahmedabad is a basic instance of it. However, England’s premier all-rounder Ben Stokes feels that displaying aggressive physique language on the pitch would possibly work for India but it surely is not the case for his aspect.Â
“Every team and every player has a certain way of operating in the field, which makes them successful. As a team over the last four-five years, that’s not the way that works for us,” Stokes stated throughout a digital media-conference, when requested about Kohli’s animated celebrations whereas fielding or celebrating a fall of wicket. Â
“We stick to what we do best and what we make is to build a better side. Each team is entitled to their own way of operations. India have there and we have ours,” the all-rounder added. Â
Eoin Morgan-led England will lock horns with India within the secound encounter of the three-match ODI sequence on Friday after enduring a heavy 66-run defeat within the opening conflict.Â
When requested whether or not Stokes most well-liked a “nice or spiky” Kohli, the all-rounder gave a sensible reply: “Personally, I prefer Virat doesn’t get runs, because that’s not good for us.”
The vacationers are at the moment on the danger of being tumbled from the numero uno place within the ODIs however Stokes said that the issue is not their driving drive.
“We deserve to be No 1 because of our results and how we played our cricket and we won’t go away from that. Being No 1 is obviously a fantastic thing to have next to your name as a team, but it’s not our driving force. Our driving force is the way that we go about it and our attitude towards playing the game. And that’s what’s made us be successful, and the more successful we are obviously the more chance and the more opportunity we’ve got to be at No 1.”Â
