Virat Kohli is not a person to be poked and no point poking the bear,”

The 33-year-old said on the upcoming series,

“It would be very surreal playing against India without the crowd. I want to be selected and be part of that series. Last time we were not bad but we were beaten by a good team and their bowling was relentless.”
