"It used to be the all over the ODI collection in Sri Lanka (in 2017) the place we had almost gained everything, I asked MS (Dhoni) if I may just bowl. Just when I was getting ready to roll my arm over, Bumrah (Jasprit) shouted from the boundary and said 'no joking round, it is a global recreation'.
"No one in the staff believes in my bowling however I do. After that I had back issues after which by no means bowled (in the heart)," said the Indian captain in an interview to host broadcaster of the World Cup.
Kohli, on the other hand, nonetheless bowls in the nets, most lately in a convention session right here previous this week.
He has taken four wickets in ODIs and as many in T20s. He has bowled 163 balls in Test cricket but the wickets column stays empty.
The celebrity batsman also shared an anecdote which displays that he has at all times taken his bowling critically.
"I used to practice James Anderson's motion when I was on the academy (in Delhi). Later, once I were given to play along him, I instructed him about that story. We each had a just right laugh over it," Kohli quipped.
