Virat Kohli (India captain): Definitely not the way that we expected to start the tournament. We couldn't execute our plans. Pakistan just outplayed us. They started brilliantly with the ball. We needed early wickets but they didn't gave us any chances with the bat. The pitch played slow in the first half and hitting through the line was not that easy as it was in the second half, after 10 overs. We needed those 15-20 extra runs. But for that, we needed a good start. When you're 20/3, it's pretty tough to get back into the match & the Pakistan bowling didn't allow us to get those extra runs. We could make the argument of getting in another slower bowler but it won't be effective as the dew comes in. It's important to stay composed and understand our strengths. We are not a team that worries or gets into the panic button with on loss. This is just the first game of the tournament. There is a lot more to come.
