Indian skipper Virat Kohli has become “more assured of himself” and now he believes he doesn’t need to prove anything to anyone. Ahead of the first India vs Australia Test, the 30-year-old captain said he didn’t feel anything different while playing in other countries.

“You learn from every series, every tour, every game that you play,” Kohli was quoted as saying by Sydney-based Macquarie Sports Radio.

“I think from last time round, I’ve become more assured of myself, I don’t really find the need to prove anything to anyone. It’s all about doing what the team wants me to do and just giving my 100% on the field, it’s a gradual process, I don’t really feel anything different when I go to tour countries now, it’s more a process now,” Virat Kohli added.

“I think from last time round, I’ve become more assured of myself, I don’t really find the need to prove anything to anyone,” he further explained.

Speaking about his cricketing experience, Virat Kohli further said, “In the early stage of my career I used to think of these things as important milestones which are really important in one’s career, but now the focus is purely and solely on making the team win at any cost.”

Indian skipper Virat Kohli has become “more assured of himself” and now he believes he doesn’t need to prove anything to anyone. “So … I don’t find the need to get involved in anything with the opposition and I think those are changes that keep happening gradually as you go forward,” Kohli added.
