Virat Kohli (India skipper): Amazing. Three clinical games for us. Couldn't have asked for a better performance after the first two clinical games. The relentlessness of the side is something that really pleases me. We really enjoy ourselves and even at the end when (Ambati) Rayudu and (Dinesh) Karthik were batting, we were sitting in the change room and cheering for every run. That's how the environment in the dressing room is. The guys believe in their skills and they are showing it on the field. When a guy doesn't get runs in a couple of games, he's actually hungry to score runs and the opposition feels a bit nervous because he's gonna fire at some stage. So, that's the kind of confidence we carry in the team right now. In the batting department as well as the bowling department. The guys are making those impactful performances and that's why we have been winning convincingly. Hopefully we can win the last 2 games.
