00:19 Mike, any words on Virat Kohli? We all know he had got starts, you know, scored 50.
00:25 You had any kind of chat with him throughout this IPL, means the way he not able to, you know, convert his scores into big or sometimes we saw a striker tissue also in his innings. Any chat with him?
00:39 Oh look, we're always talking with all of our players and Virat I thought looked very good today. He looked in good touch, he was aggressive and he's doing everything off the park as well in terms of making sure he prepares well.
00:50 You know, I thought today was going to be his day but he, you know, once again hits the other side of the thigh pad and goes down and gets a league by but he hasn't had a huge amount of good fortune, especially when he's got himself set and got himself in.
01:02 And he's frustrated as anybody but, you know, we thought today was going to be the day but yeah, as a batting unit, you know, today was our opportunity to put a line in the sand in terms of chasing a formidable score like that.
01:14 And as I said, we just lost wickets in clumps.
01:17 Do you have any, do you see any problem with his batting? You know, you have been a coach of repute and he has not been, it has been frustrating to everyone, cricketers and fans and to you as well. Anything you want to say about his batting?
01:31 Look, he's the best we've ever had so in terms of, you know, at RCB, he's an incredible player. He hasn't scored the volume of runs that I'm sure he would like. As I said today, I thought he looked in really good touch so it wasn't a, it's not a technical thing.
01:45 As I said, he's putting a lot of work in behind the scenes. He was in, as I said, looked in really good touch today and he was unfortunate so I thought we were going to see something special.
01:53 But look, Virats is frustrated as anyone but we know that that big one is around the corner and obviously we've got a huge game coming up so there's no reason why it won't be in a few days' time.
