Kohli takes a dig at ICC and media on 'pitch' debate

“I don’t think anyone has written any articles about Adelaide Test which finished in two and half days,” Kohli said when asked about the Nagpur pitch.

When reporters asked him about the ICC Match Referee rating the Nagpur pitch as ‘poor’, Kohli shot back by saying, "Well, there have been three scores of under 50 runs (in an innings) in South Africa but I haven't seen any sort of articles on that. Teams have been bundled out under 100 for about six times in South Africa. Never saw any articles written on that. See articles are there to be written. It's a mindset or an opinion of someone. I don't relate to it, I don't understand it and I don't entertain it. It doesn't bother me or the team."

"Yes, I am talking about anyone (including ICC). I am not only talking about people writing articles in general. It's an assessment that happens in every condition and at every ground. Unfortunately, the situation in our country is highlighted a bit too much and that's a fact. Because only thing we talk about is the pitch and when we were in South Africa, the only thing we talked about is how badly we played," Kohli added.
