“Not very proud of the way we played, to be honest. First time in last five Test matches we have been outplayed. Credit to England as they were clinical and when a team plays like that they deserve to be on the winning side,” Kohli said in the post-match interview.

Not giving excuses the Indian captain further said that he won’t crib about not having the best of conditions throughout the match as a team should be able to counter it as and when they come.

“Won’t sit around and say that we didn’t have the best of conditions. You have to counter the conditions as and when they come to you. Can’t crib about these things as sometimes the rub of green will go your way too,” he added.
