Kohli heads into a short break –
Post the game on Sunday, the 33 year old former Indian skipper will head into a short break. It is expected that Kohli will be back for the Asia Cup which is to be held late August in the UAE after the current turmoil in SL has seen them lose the chance to host the tournament. Kohli has got mass support from cricketers and beyond as many of the big names in the world of sports have come out and supported the former India captain during his tough phase.
India will hope that Kohli heads into his break with a fine innings and a win for India. No team has won a ODI series in England since 2014. The Men in blue under MS Dhoni were the last to achieve this feat. Kohli is expected to stay back in the UK along with his family for a while and stay away from the game for a bit.
