You have to be at your best in every game because it’s not a group stage anymore, says Kohli
Hours before the Men in Blue would embark on their mission to reclaim the World Cup after eight years, India captain Virat Kohli underlined the format of the 10team extravaganza as one of the biggest challenges for his team.
“It is probably the most challenging World Cup of all the three that I have been a part of because of the format. [And] Looking at the strengths of all the sides as well. If you look at an Afghanistan from 2015 to now, they are a completely different side,” Kohli, with his trusted ally in head coach Ravi Shastri seated next to him, said at the Indian team’s pre-departure media interaction at the BCCI headquarters.
