A spirited Kenya was disappointed after losing to defending champions Australia by 60 runs late Sunday but their confidence got a boost by chasing an imposing 325-run target in a Group A fixture of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 at the Chinnaswamy stadium in this tech hub.

"We are disappointed to have lost again but our confidence has gone up as we were able to face the Aussie pace attack and score 264 for six wickets. Three run-outs cost us dearly," Kenyan skipper James Kamande told reporters here at a post-match briefing.
