Virat Kohli on Friday hit a fluent 66 but failed to convert yet another to a three-figure mark as the wait for his 71st hundred continued. 

On being asked about his wait to hit the 71st ton, Kohli said that he has never played for a hundred in his life, and it is all about contributing to the team's cause. 

"I never played for hundreds in my life, probably why I ended up getting so many in such a short while. It's more important for the team to win. If I get a three-figure score and the team doesn't win, it means nothing," Kohli told in the post-match presentation. 

On Hardik Pandya's absence as a bowler when the others were going for runs, Kohli revealed that the team has been looking after the all-rounder's workload management and they need him fit in the next couple of months. 

"We need to manage his body. Need to understand where we need this skill set. Did utilise him in the T20Is but in the ODIs, it's about managing his workload. We have Test cricket in England coming up too. So it's important for us to have him fit," the Indian captain said.
