Cricket | Before the Indian team leaves for England, Team India captain Virat Kohli and head coach Ravi Shastri held a press conference in Mumbai on Wednesday. India has to play the final of the World Test Championship with New Zealand first in the England tour. After this, India's team will play a five-match Test series against England.

Kohli said in a press conference before the Indian team's departure for England tour that there is no pressure on me regarding the final of the World Test Championship. I want to take Indian cricket forward. Earlier also there was no pressure on me and still there is no pressure on me. On the question of New Zealand getting an advantage in England conditions, Virat Kohli said that the conditions are as strong for New Zealand as they are for us. If you want us to think that New Zealand will benefit before boarding the flight, it is not. We feel that we are on equal footing.

On the long gap between the WTC final and the England Test, Virat Kohli said that it is a great opportunity to think and relax. Given that we will have a five-Test series ahead. This will give us time to regroup and it is needed before such an important series. Kohli said that he wants to keep winning. We have worked hard to get here. It's like football, where you win a Champions League, you don't stop, you just want to keep winning.
