00:00How was Virat Kohli feeling?
00:03Well, I'm feeling...
00:06Again, I said it in Kolkata.
00:11The great man just congratulated me.
00:12I mean, all this for me feels like a dream, honestly.
00:15It's too good to be true.
00:18Feels surreal.
00:19I never thought I'd be here ever in my career.
00:22Just to help the team so many times.
00:24Again, a big game today.
00:26I had to kind of play the role that I played throughout the tournament
00:28so that the guys around me can go and express themselves.
00:31Just glad that everything came together so nicely
00:33and we put a great total on the board as well.
00:36How does Virat Kohli keep that consistency going?
00:40Well, again, as I said a lot of times before,
00:43for me the most important thing is to make my team win.
00:45And whatever it takes to do that, I'm ready to do that.
00:48Whether it's running singles and doubles, hitting boundaries,
00:50hitting whatever the team wants me to do.
00:52I've been given a role in this tournament
00:53and I'm trying to play that to the best of my abilities,
00:56try to dig deep, bat long,
00:57so that the others can, you know, kind of play around me
01:00and have that confidence that I'm going into the later overs
01:03where I can dominate with the bat as well.
01:05So that's the only key to consistency, I guess.
01:09Just playing according to the situation,
01:11playing for your team at all times.
01:12There was a different emotion that we got to see from you
01:16once you got to a hundred today.
01:18What was that?
01:20I mean, look, as I said, it's stuff of dreams.
01:22You know, Anushka was sitting right there.
01:24Sachin Paji was there in the stands.
01:28I mean, I mean, it's very difficult for me to explain this,
01:33but if I could paint a perfect picture,
01:35I would want this to be, you know, the picture.
01:39My life partner, the person I love the most,
01:42she's sitting there.
01:43My hero, he's sitting there.
01:45And, you know, I was able to get the 50th in front of all of them
01:49and all these fans in 1K Day as well.
01:51Such a historic venue.
01:52So it was amazing.
01:54Winning the toss, putting the runs on the board.
01:57What was the target before the start of the play?
02:00And now how do you assess it?
02:02Well, in a big game, I think anything over 330, 340,
02:04you're happy with.
02:05But to get to 400, it's amazing.
02:07I mean, you know, a lot of credit has to go to Shreyas.
02:09The way he batted, the way he came out and batted freely.
02:12Shubman at the top, Rohit at the top.
02:14I think everyone did their roles to perfection
02:16and did the job for the team beautifully out there.
02:19KL finishing with a flurry.
02:20So I think it was, again, from us,
02:22a perfect batting performance.
02:24But just one half of the game is done.
02:26We still got to go out there and be professional with the ball
02:28and do the things that we've done in the tournament so far.
02:31Congratulations on another landmark achievement.
02:34All the very best.
02:35Thank you so much.
