"I'd like to find a way to get Virat Kohli out. That's probably my first thought. I don't think we should read too much into 360 and 350. It's quite clear that given the two new balls and the four fielders out, that maybe the new 300-290.
"We're disappointed not to win. But we're not making too much of the score," he said.
"I thought we fought are way back into the game really well. I thought Mitchell Johnson and James Faulkner found a way to get us back into the game. We've just got to try and find a way to sneak a couple of early wickets. That's probably been the difference.
"To our bowlers' credit, I think we tried to make Virat hit really good shots. Particularly towards the end we made him hit good balls for fours and sixes. I was really proud of the way our bowlers finished," added the Tasmanian.
