What did Simon Dooley say

Commenting on this, Simon Dual said, Kohli started like a high speed train. He was lashing out. It looked like Hammerhammer was underway. The latter took him 10 balls to reach 50 from 42. It seemed that he was worried about his record. I don't think there is room for this in this game. You have to keep scoring runs, especially when you get very close to the wicket.
