Indian team again wasted an opportunity to gain the upper hand by losing three quick wickets in the post tea session to give all the momentum to England. India are struggling at 174/6 with debutant Hanuma Vihari(25*) and Ravindra Jadeja(8*) on the crease. They trail by 158 runs with just four wickets left to surpass the total.
In the final test match, passionate Indian fans were looking for some sort of domination by the Indian team, who are 3-1 down, but they failed to deliver once again which became a reason of criticization.
#ENGvIND As I had noted before that Ajinkya Rahane is finished as a Cricketer, and needs to be shown the exit door. Yet the team management persisted with him, but he proved to be too ungrateful and got out for zero. Poor Karun Nair can only sigh at this episode.

We used to hear that to win overseas, our bowlers need to take #20wkts. Our pace bowlers taking #20wkts comfortably per match this #ENGvIND series! Still we’re on the losing side! Top order batting except @imVkohli is not up to the mark for overseas tour!?

#ENGvIND @cricketaakash @ImRo45 Caiptancy is all together a different ball game. Kohli is defensive with his caiptancy skill in contrast to his nature. It’s time to Make space for Rohit as an opener and Caiptan. Kohli as Tendulkar while Rohit as MSD. This justify Modern cricket
