Birmingham: India captain Virat Kohli on Saturday dismissed the speculated rift with Anil Kumble, stating that there were "no problems" with the chief coach and the entire episode was nothing but rumours.
"There are a lot speculations and lot of things being written by people without actually being part of the change room which is quite strange. There are no problems whatsoever," Kohli said.
When the question was rephrased by another scribe about how his journey with Kumble has been through the past year, he answered with an equally deadpan expression. "It's been really good. The whole journey has been good," he said.
Kohli described the team as a family where disagreements can happen. "It's normal to have disagreements. Even at home, not everybody agrees on everything. It's human nature. When you don't know about something completely, don't spread rumours and speculate, just focus on cricket," he was terse in his answers.
