Was Really Tired While Batting At 65: Virat Kohli Reveals

When Kohli revealed that he was tired once he reached 65, Chahal remarked “Breaking News: Even our skipper gets tired.”

After playing a match-winning knock of 120 runs against West Indies in the second ODI on Sunday, Indian skipper Virat Kohli revealed to Yuzvendra Chahal how the innings took a toll on him. He stated that he felt tired after reaching 65. Meanwhile, Kohli became the highest run-getter against West Indies in the ODI format. He also became the second-highest run-getter for the Men in Blue in the 50-over format. In a video posted by the BCCI, Kohli is seen having a candid conversation with Chahal. “It was important for me to stay at the crease. As a side, we try that one of our top three batsmen goes on to play a big knock. Shikhar and Rohit have done that for us in the past, and today I was able to do it. Honestly, I was tired when I reached the score of 65, but the situation demanded me to work hard for every run,” Kohli told Chahal. When Kohli revealed that he was tired once he reached 65, Chahal remarked “Breaking News: Even our skipper gets tired.” India defeated West Indies by 59 runs, owing to Duckworth-Lewis in the second ODI. The men-in-blue next take on West Indies in the final ODI of the three-match series on Wednesday, August 14 in Trinidad and Tobago.
