"It feels great to get this win in the bag"- Virat Kohli after victory against DC

Speaking at the post-match presentation, Virat Kohli reflected on the win and said that he was confident after his side scored well in the first innings. He then shed light on his thought process during his knock. He said:

"It feels great to get this win in the bag. I always felt confident of the score we had at the halfway stage and kept telling that to the team in the dressing room. I like playing innings like these as well. Generally I like to take my time and settle in, but today, I backed myself to hit the ball from the get go and it came off."

He added:

"When I played similar shots against Australia back in the 2016 T20 World Cup, I felt like hitting every ball confidently. Things have changed now, but it still feels good to know that the game is there and can be brought out if and when need be. I caught them pretty safely in the field as well, so that just adds to the confidence."

RCB will be up against the challenge of CSK on April 17 at Bengaluru.
