The way Dhoni and Kohli play till the end and I also tried to do the same. Sangakkara has told me this a lot. There is always a time when things change. The worst thing is that you don't fight and give away your wicket yourself. Sangakkara said that just stand on the wicket and the momentum will change at any moment.
