Mohali: In a fickle format like T20 where consistency is rare, India captain Virat Kohli showed that he is a master at it after his unbeaten half-century on Wednesday helped the Men in Blue beat South Africa by seven wickets to win the second T20I. India took a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. Kohli surpassed Rohit Sharma as the highest run-getter in T20 internationals as he remained unbeaten on 72 to guide the team home here at the PCA Stadium. Captain Kohli revealed the source of his remarkable consistency in the shortest format. "The badge in front of my shirt — India — it is a pride to play for my country. Whatever it takes, whichever format,
to get us across the line, I'll do that.

"Adapting in different formats is nothing but a mindset of making your team win. If you want to win a game for your team, you will find a way. That's the most important thing. I never think about myself, it's always about what the team need. Test cricket, one-day cricket... the will should be to win the game for your country," Kohli said in the post-match presentation.
