Kanpur: Taking a subtle dig at a scribe of&nbsp;the touring party, India captain Virat Kohli said he was not&nbsp;bothered about the presence of left-arm pacer Tymal Mills in&nbsp;the England squad as he has faced "enough 90mph bowlers in his&nbsp;career".
Asked for his thoughts on Mills, who is a T20 specialist, Kohli responded bluntly.&nbsp;"I haven't seen much of him but I have played 90mph&nbsp;before in my career so," said Kohli in a dismissive tone.&nbsp;

"They have brought him (Mills) as a T20 specialist, he&nbsp;might have a set of skills which is required for this format.&nbsp;I can may be comment on him after the second game having&nbsp;played him a bit. But 90mph is not a problem at all. I think I have faced enough 90mph bowlers till now," he said drawing&nbsp;instant laughter from the media persons.

Kohli, however, was full of praise for the current crop of England players despite being unsure of their utility in&nbsp;the IPL.
"There is no doubt about the talent that is available in the English team. As you mention the small window has always&nbsp;been an issue (in IPL). Not many teams want to spend money on&nbsp;players who are not available for the whole of IPL. You rather&nbsp;prefer to have a guy who lasts the whole tournament and gives&nbsp;you that extra balance. That is my point of view. Teams might&nbsp;think differently," said Kohli, who captains the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL.
