India skipper Virat Kohli said Saturday that competitiveness and “mind games” can be good for cricket as his team prepares to face their arch-rival Australia in a one-day series starting Sunday.
While Australia captain Steve Smith has batted for peace and urged the five-match series to be played in “good spirit”, Kohli hinted that a bit of aggression can be useful to get the best out of players.”All those things are to get that aspect of mind games which I think creates an excitement for the fans watching as well,” Kohli told reporters on the eve of the limited-overs series in Chennai.
