We weren’t able to read the tempo of the game well: Kohli
India captain Virat Kohli conceded that his team failed to read the tempo of the game after South Africa won the the third T20I by 9 wickets to level the three-match series 1-1, here on Sunday.
After restricting India to a modest 134/9, Proteas skipper Quinton de Kock led from the front with an unbeaten 79 (52 balls, 4×6, 6×5) as South Africa chased down the target with more than three overs to spare.
“I think South Africa bowled well, the pitch suited them in the first innings and we weren”t able to read the tempo of the game well,” Kohli said in the post-match presentation ceremony.
