He was confident also as an under-19 captain. But there have been many examples of confident young players who don&#39;t follow up and follow through. He is one who has,&quot; Whatmore was quoted as saying by Dawn.com.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;It is always nice to see progress in him (Kohli). To be very honest, I was only there for a short period of time but the time I spent was enjoyable,&quot; the 60-year-old said.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nWhatmore, who also coached Sri Lanka to World Cup triumph in 1996, said he is also impressed by India&#39;s bowling attack, which has performed marvelously in the ongoing World Cup. Putting behind a dismal Test series and tri-nation One Day International tournament in Australia, Indian bowlers have been on top of their game.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;It&#39;s a team that is bowling the opposition out frequently and that has been a big plus for India,&quot; Whatmore said.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n&quot;Their batting talent has never really been in question. What was needed was a good strong bowling performance and they have done that.&quot;<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nAfter five consecutive wins in the ongoing mega event, India face Zimbabwe in final World Cup Pool B match on Saturday to go into the quarterfinals with a clean sheet.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
