Kapil Dev has advice for Virat Kohli to 'excel' in England

Virat Kohli has been on two tours of England since he made his Test debut for India. In the first tour in 2014, Kohli was all over the place, scoring just 134 runs from 10 innings, statistically the India captain's worst in a three-Test series or more. However, four years later, Kohli turned it around in style, scoring a mammoth 593 runs from five Tests, including two centuries and three fifties. Three years later, as Kohli embarks upon his third tour of England, he would be no stranger to the conditions there, but former India World Cup-winning captain Kapil Dev has interesting advice for the current skipper, which will help Kohli 'excel. "I expect him to excel. Can you really shackle him? He is a natural when it comes to adapting but I would caution him to not be over-aggressive. He will have to measure it session by session. He'll be better off waiting for his moments of dominance," Kapil told Mid-Day in an interview.

"He will get his runs with a bit of patience. Trying too hard and too early doesn’t work in England where you need to watch the movement of the ball. If you play seam and swing well, show patience, you will succeed in England."
