Virat Kohli eagerly looking for Bangladesh series

India's Test captain Virat Kohli rubbished the rumors of ill-gotten environment that clouded between his team and Bangladesh, as both teams are getting ready for One Day International series along with a test match. When the two nations head in 2015 World Cup quarter-finals, Bangladesh suffered a 109-run loss against India. But the victory leaves bitter experiences to Team India as the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and a number of fans had raised questions over umpiring decisions and felt that the match had gone against them.

The issue gained prominence when ICC President Mustafa Kamal from Bangladesh also joined the chorus of bad umpiring decisions. Later, ICC put Kamal away from the presentation ceremony of final trophy and the angry Kamal resigned the post.

But Kohli said that he was untouchable of whatever happened in the past and insisted on playing professional Cricket.

"We had issues in the past but we have moved ahead. We are finished with the World Cup and played a lot of cricket since then. So I don't think there will be any remembrance or memory of that.

"We are going there to play and win a Test match and that's our primary focus. There won't be any grudges or ill feelings about the opposition. It's pure and simple professionalism," Kohli said.

India is scheduled to play a one-off Test match, beginning June 10, followed by a three-match one-day international series.
