The Indian team will square off against England in a five-match test series, starting from August 4. The Sky Sports Cricket on Monday posted a snippet on their Twitter handle from Virat Kohli’s exclusive interview with Dinesh Karthik.

The duo discussed India’s upcoming test series against England and much more. The Sky Sports Cricket wrote, “KING KOHLI: COMING SOON ON SKY SPORTS! India captain Virat Kohli speaks exclusively to @DineshKarthik. In a wide-ranging interview, discussing what the England series means to him, much more! Watch it in full during the first #ENGvIND on SS Cricket from Wednesday”

Dinesh Karthik asked Virat Kohli about what it takes to win a series in England. The Indian skipper replied, “It takes relentless madness and pursuit of excellence every day over a five (match) Test series to tell yourself ‘I wanna do the hard work and I wanna get into situations which are tough in every test match on every day, firstly. And you gotta be ready for that kind of workload and that kind of mental load.”

Virat Kohli also expressed what it means to him personally to win a test series in England. He said:

“For me personally, it means nothing more than winning a test match or a test series anywhere else in the world. As I said, for me these things are not anecdotes in my career or milestones in my career. We step onto the field and we compete and we are looking to win every test match. That’s what matters more to me because again that’s a culture. These are results.”

“It will be huge for Indian Cricket” – Virat Kohli on the importance of the England Test series

The Indian skipper, Virat Kohli further added the culture in the team is what is important to him. He said:

“For Indian cricket yes it will be a huge thing. We’ve done it before, we can do it again. But this time culture is what is more dear to me and I will do everything in my ability. Even If we lose a test match I want us to go and not surrender or try to save a test match on day 3 or day. That for me is just not acceptable.”

“So for me as I said, milestones don’t matter at all if I had played for milestones in my career probably wouldn’t have half of what I have right now, so my mindset is pretty clear and for us, it’s just pursuit of excellence,” added Kohli.
