Playing too much cricket at dead Indian pitches, except Kohli all other batsmen struggled against moving n swinging bowling. Next IPL should be held at grassy n bouncy pitches if India do want to improve their performance outside India. #ENGvIND

In the end, India was no match for England, its reservoir of talent not deep enough for English conditions. Outplayed and outsmarted in every department. Paper tigers, flat pitch bullies, etc etc. Well played, England. Truly deserve the 4-1 outcome. #ENGvIND ?? ???????

Nothing to take away from Cook’s career. But how come you people rate Anderson so highly?
He only bowls with the new ball and in overcast conditions. For me Glenn MeGrath will always be the greatest fast bowler of all time. #CookRetires #ENGvIND— AMIT DAS (@Sir_AD28) September 11, 2018

The so called most talented bunch of Indian batsmen need a solid BAT on their back! Competing is not enough. A win is a win. #ENGvIND

The Lack Of Runs From The Lower Middle Order Made The Difference In This Series ???

Unfortunately being good enough in paches doesn’t help in winning tough away series. #ENGvIND
