Hyderabad: Aiming to seal the series against Sri Lanka after two massive victories, Indian skipper Virat Kohli on Saturday said the team is preparing to be ruthless ahead of the 2015 World Cup. Team India thrashed the visitors by 169 runs in the first ODI and won the second game by six wickets, but Kohli insisted that every game is a challenge.

World Cup in mind
"We treat every game like a knockout game, so I am not thinking about 2-0. We are making plans for every game and trying to execute those plans. That's the kind of mindset we want to build going into a tournament like the World Cup, where, come the knockout stage, you play one knockout game and you're out," said Kohli on the eve of the third one-dayer here.
