Based on his brilliant performances for Gujarat Titans (GT) and consistent show in the domestic cricket, prolific batter Sai Sudharsan has been selected in the Indian team for the upcoming Test series against England.
Sudharsan is currently preparing for the tough series. Recently, he shared some insights about a conversation he had with superstar Virat Kohli as he prepares for the series.
"I just congratulated him (Kohli) after the final. It was a very special moment for him. But I've had a lot of conversations in previous years. What I've always admired about him is his mindset — the obsession that he has for the sport. I have spoken with him regarding those and how he dealt with situations when he was not getting a lot of runs and finding it difficult. I think, as a cricketer, those are the times that you learn most, so I had conversations about that," said Sudharsan during a recent interaction.

Meanwhile, Sudharsan also praised India's newly appointed Test captain Shubman Gill for his self-belief and the way he handles pressure.
"The biggest thing is the mindset, self-belief, the trust that he (Gill) has in his ability. I've seen how he manages himself when he's not getting runs — that understanding of the game and life to maintain consistency. Then there are technical discussions as well which are also helpful," said Sudharsan.
