Virat Kohli was disappointed after the thrashing in the first Test against New Zealand at Wellington but cautioned against reading too much into the loss. "We did not play good enough cricket and that’s why we lost," Kohli told reporters while interacting with the media at the post-match conference. He added that a one-off defeat will not make Team India a bad team overnight, he was confident that the team will up the ante and put up an improved performance in the second Test.

"There is no doubt that we are going to try to win the next Test, playing positive cricket. We are not bothered about another loss but we are not going to take a backward step for sure" said Kohli.
