MUMBAI: India's Virat Kohli believes his mindset as a batsman changed after being handed the captaincy and the extra responsibility is the reason for his imperious run-scoring ability.

"It's getting the responsibility of being captain," Kohli said at the presentation ceremony on Sunday after being named man of the match as India won by an innings and 137 runs. "The mindset is always to help the team as much as possible, play at a tempo the team requires you to and in that process big scores come. The mindset change is the only reason behind getting the big scores."Kohli was handed the test captaincy in abrupt fashion at the start of 2015 when long-serving skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni retired from test cricket midway through a series in Australia.

"As a captain you are trying to think of ways, how you can change little field placements, bowlers but he was too good in this test match," Du Plessis said.
