It was difficult – Virat Kohli

However, Virat Kohli is keen to move on from the disappointment and is focused on the job at hand. India will be seen in action for the first time after the World Cup 2019 when they take on West Indies in the first T20I of the three-match series on Saturday.

“The first few days after we exited the World Cup were quite difficult. Till the time the tournament got over, every time we woke up it was the worst feeling in the morning. Then through the day, you do things and sort of getting on with your life,” Virat Kohli told the press on the eve of the 1st T20I.

“Yesterday the fielding session and the little bit of time we spent on the field was really good. Everyone was excited, looking forward to just playing, just being on the field again. I think that’s the best thing you can do as a team, just get on the park as soon as possible,” Kohli added.

India will play 2 T20Is in Florida on Saturday and Sunday before heading to Guyana for the third T20I on August 6. Virat Kohli’s men will also play 3 ODIs after which they will begin their World Test Championships campaign against the West Indies later in August.
