You have to accept that other side played better: Virat Kohli

Edgbaston [UK]: After suffering their first defeat in the ongoing ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup on Sunday, Indian skipper Virat Kohli said that no one likes to lose matches, but sometimes credit needs to be given to the opponent.
His remarks come as India were defeated by England at Edgbaston on Sunday by 31 runs.
“Look every team has lost a game here and there. No one likes to lose but you have to accept the other side played better. The mood is absolutely same in the change room, we understand as professional cricketers it’s a setback,” Kohli said during the post-match ceremony.
Kohli said that the toss played a vital part in the match and he described having a boundary of just 59 metres on a flat track as quite bizarre.
“The toss was vital, especially looking at the boundary that was quite short. I think it was 59 metres which coincidentally is the minimum amount required in an international match. Quite bizarre on a flat pitch. It’s crazy that things fall in place like that randomly. But we should have been clinical because the wicket was flat,” Kohli said.
The number one ranked batsman in the ICC ODI batsmen rankings also said that the team could have accelerated in their run-chase.
