India skipper Virat Kohli does not lament chastening 48-run defeat to Australia

India's stand-in captain Virat Kohli said that he has 'no regrets' after incurring a 48-run defeat against Australia in the first Test match at the Adelaide Oval.

Kohli said that he was 'pleased' with the way they played as their intention was to chase down the target. He further said that if he and opener Murali Vijay had contributed 40 more runs to the scoreboard, the result would have been different. 

The skipper scored his second consecutive century, amassing 141 runs before he was caught out by Marsh on Nathan Lyon's delivery. He also said that he was 'trying to hit more in front of square', adding that it was 'one of the mistakes' he would look back in the future.

Congratulating Australia over their thrilling victory, he said that Australia played better and praised them for their participation in the Test following the tragic demise of late cricketer Phillip Hughes.
