That&#39;s where we think they&#39;re very precious, specially in the longer format because they provide you with great balance,&quot; Kohli told reporters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;He (Jadeja) can give you a very quick 60-70 anywhere at any stage and it can really turn the game... He&#39;s always in the game. I would say he&#39;s a very valuable cricketer for us,&quot; Kolhi added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The skipper also said that it was important for the side to enjoy the tough situations after taking an unassailable 2-0 lead over the hosts and clinching the three-Test series.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Today we said even if we don&#39;t get wickets early on, we are going to enjoy these tough times as well, because they really improve you as a side,&quot; the Delhi batsman said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Success will come your way but you need patience. Very happy that we went through the difficult phases as well and you never get complacent as a side then,&quot; said Kohli, who became the only Indian captain to win two Test series in Sri Lanka.<\/p>\r\n",
