Former India cricketer Vinod Kambli said attitude will be key to India’s success during the upcoming tour of South Africa which will commence with Test series from January 5 next year. India will play three Tests, six ODIs, and three T20Is.

As quoted in PTI, talking to the reporters, Kambli said, “It will be about the technique and the approach towards the game. There will be bouncy tracks and they (South African bowlers) will come at you. So the more aggressively and positively you play will be the best thing to do in South Africa.”

He further added, “I had learned when I played as professional that you have to play aggressively and positively. No matter whatever the situation is, just play your best. I am very confident that our team will do well (in South Africa), the way they are playing and the way they are winning. We have got the batting line up. Though it will be a challenge for Virat (Kohli) and the team.”

Indian skipper Virat Kohli’s consecutive double centuries equaled Kambli’s feat. The former southpaw is happy to share the initials with current Indian captain and said he is happy to see Kohli bat well. He said, “The way Virat is playing is amazing. I am happy to see him batting like that. I am also VK and he is also VK. I got the double hundreds long back. I would like to congratulate him.”

Ajinkya Rahane’s form is raising a few concerns as he has struggled in the long home season. However, Kambli feels that a big knock is around the corner and it will regain Rahane’s confidence.

“He is struggling but once he gets in, he should get bigger runs. Getting out so early, you lose your confidence and concentration. So for him, it’s one big knock. If he gets an opportunity, one big knock will bring back his confidence,” said Kambli.
