India-Pakistan match is same like other game: Kohli

Dhaka, Feb 23 (IBNS): Indian Test skipper Virat Kohli has said a match India and Pakistan remains the same for players as playing a game against other opposition teams.

"For spectators it might be exciting but for players it is same as playing any other team," Kohli said while addressing a press conference.

Kohli welcomed Pakistani cricketer Mohammad Amir 's comeback to national team.

"I am happy that he has rectified the mistake he has committed," the Indian Test skipper said.

"I always feel that he is a world class bowler," Kohli said.

"I wish him all the best. He has worked hard to make a comeback," Kohli said.

Hit by spot-fixing charges, Amir was suspended from playing cricket for five years.

He made a comeback to the international arena recently after serving the ban.

Kohli and the rest of the Indian side are currently gearing up for the Asia Cup to be played in Dhaka this time.

The tournament will be played in a T20 format for the first time.
