WELLINGTON: India's batsmen will still take a confident mindset into the second test against New Zealand in Christchurch, despite struggling to deal with the hosts' disciplined pace bowling attack in a 10-wicket loss in the first test.

"I don't think a cautious approach ever pays off, especially away from home," Kohli said after the loss."We will definitely be much more positive. The defeat was India's first in their scheduled matches for the International Cricket Council's World Test Championship, but Kohli said the team's culture meant that his players would not be bothered by it."We have the belief that we can win. But if there is a defeat in the interim, it doesn't mean the belief will go away," he said.

Kohli added the team's positive mentality had helped his side hold onto the world's top test ranking since October, 2016 and they would continue to pursue that."Whatever it requires us to do as a batting unit, a bowling unit and a fielding unit to be able to do that, we are definitely going to come out and do that.
