India are looking forward to going to other countries and playing well: Kohli

Virat Kohli exuded confidence ahead of India's departure for the tour of Ireland and England and said his men were looking forward to some difficult cricket.

"After what happened in South Africa, we are actually looking forward to some tough cricket," Kohli told the media in New Delhi on Friday.

"When we were playing the Test series in South Africa and lost the first two matches, people thought we were outplayed. Then we won the third Test and won the two series after that. Then they realised how well we played. We are looking forward to going to other countries and playing well. We are looking forward to playing difficult cricket," Kohli said.
