The champion batsman said that upcoming series against South Africa was important and hoped that with new faces Indian team would give a good performance. He said that time of batsmen from the big cities calling the shot in old times was over and now hardworking player, whether they were from the small city were knocking the door of Indian team.

On being aggressive on the field, Kohli said that he never gestured at anyone but he also indicated that he is trying to curb his aggression.
