Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav, who also plays for Kolkata franchise in the Indian Premier League, spoke about his national team's captain Virat Kohli.
He said, "He's one of the best in the world, has broken so many records I don't think he will be affected by this," Kuldeep said.
"He has a different hunger when he plays for India. Everyone is highly motivated to do well in the World Cup," Kuldeep added.
Kuldeep refused to believe that the IPL losing streak will affect the skipper's form going into the World Cup.
The Kohli-led Bangalore team have lost six matches on the trot this IPL season but Kuldeep backed his captain.
Kuldeep also gave his opinion on Bangalore's disappointing performance.
He said, "With 5000-plus runs, individually he's doing his best. But maybe his team combination is not clicking. Maybe somewhere down the line he's lacking in team combination. It's a team combination.
"He's in great touch and if he keeps doing well like that it will be good for India in World Cup," Kuldeep concluded.
