Virat Kohli believe India are close to beating England
India captain Virat Kohli believes his team are close to beating England as they prepare for the second Test of the five-match series at Lord's.
The visitors fell to a 31-run defeat in an enthralling first Test, despite Kohli's first century in England.
India, the top-ranked Test side, won by 95 runs on their last appearance at Lord's four years ago.
"It's not like we're getting rolled over - every Test match that we're playing is competitive," Kohli said.
"I feel as a team we're just about there. We're in the zone where we're very positive."
India have not won a Test series in England since 2007.
Kohli top-scored in both India innings at Edgbaston with 149 and 51, but the next biggest contribution was Shikhar Dhawan's first-innings 26.
"Being in the right mindset is a very individual thing," Kohli said.
"Getting to captain the country, I feel, is an honour and I definitely leave no stones unturned when it comes to that."
India could field two spinners at Lord's, given the recent hot weather, and Ravichandran Ashwin took 4-62 and 3-59 at Edgbaston.
Wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav, who initially impressed in the one-day series against England, and left-arm all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja are the most likely to be brought into the final XI.
"The pitch is going to be, I think, an all-round wicket," Kohli added.
"When the wicket wears off, the spinners can come into play as well. It's a tempting thought to field two spinners but we will have to take a call on that depending on the team balance.
"It's definitely in contention."
