"Good opportunity to find out new things about your game. Couldn't get a better chance to practice other aspects of your game (towards the end). It is important to play against momentum sometimes, it helps you become a better team," said Kohli at the post-match presentation.

While the English team captain is happy with the game shown by his team. "It was really tough five days, good toss to win. In India if you score 530, you are always in the game. It was a good cricket wicket. We were relentless with the ball, we didn't let India score too quickly. To keep them to 480, we did well," said Cook.
