Kohli's dismissal on Friday pushed India into a difficult position, at two wickets down for three runs. It was a position from where they could never recover to post a competitive total.

Asked about his inability to get a big score in the last few innings, Kohli said after Friday's match, "It is part of the whole journey in international cricket. If we play long enough, we will have ups and downs and you have to accept that as a batsman."

The 32-year-old India batsman said that he will continue to bat with intent and stick to his plans as a batsman.

"On your day, you will probably end up scoring more. Important thing is to stay true to your intent, to your plans as a batsman. Accept as batsman that as a bowling team, they will come out and [sometimes] execute their plans better than your plans. For me, it has always been about going out there and trying to be as positive as I can," said Kohli.

Kohli had batted well through the T20I and ODI series in Australia and followed it up with a 74 in the pink-ball Adelaide Test against Australia.
