- 6 years ago
India cricket captain Virat Kohli is feeling much better and moving much better, coach Ravi Shastri said on Thursday when asked about Kohli’s back problem and his match fitness ahead of the third ODI against England in Nottingham.
"About (Virat) Kohli he is feeling much better. You saw him in the nets - he is moving much better and improving by the day," Shastri said at a press conference.
India are 2-0 down in their 5-Test series against England and two days before the start of the third, Shastri called on his team to show their true character, be prepared to look ugly and "show some grit."
Kohli strained his back at Lord's and there was some doubt that the master batsman would play at Trent Birdge, but he was seen moving freely during Thursday's training session.
