Mount Maunganui: New Zealand pacer Tim Southee on Saturday became the most successful bowler against Virat Kohli as he has now dismissed the Indian skipper nine times across formats -- six times in ODIs. Commenting on the feat, Southee preferred to be humble and credited the conditions for his success against the run-machine. "He is obviously a class-player and doesn't have many weaknesses. I think the wicket had a little bit of assistance with the new ball and if you put it in the right areas, there was enough there to ask a few questions. It is about assistance and the pitch conditions...," Southee told reporters.
Southee went on to add that Kohli's wicket becomes all the more important when India are chasing a total as the Indian captain loves the idea of chasing down targets. "It is your job to take wickets...And Virat is a great player and he has been in great form. Especially in run chases he is exceptional, so I guess it's always nice to see the back of him. I didn't know that was the most...," he said.
