    “When Sachin Tendulkar used to bat or when Virat Kohli is batting, the whole of India is watching, which is great fun. You need that for the contest. I feel batsmen like Kohli and Steve Smith are exceptional when they are at the top of their game.”

    “If you are even slightly off your game, they will seize the opportunity. So, you need to be fully focused from the beginning, or else they will take control early on. I have dismissed Kohli a few times, and he has also got the better of me,” stated Pat Cummins.
