IND vs ENG: The Indian cricket team has faced defeat by 28 runs in the first match of the 5-match Test series against England. With this, Team India has lagged 0-1 in the series. The biggest reason for the team's defeat was the excellent spin bowling of the England team. Tom Hartley alone sent 7 Indian batsmen to the pavilion in the second innings. Or we can say that Team India itself got trapped in the web which it was weaving for England. In such a situation, captain Rohit Sharma has given a big statement on the team's defeat.

What did Rohit say on Team India's defeat?

After the team's defeat, Rohit said that Test matches are played for four days, so it is difficult to say where the mistake happened. After getting a lead of 190, we felt that we were far ahead in the game. Ollie Pope batted brilliantly. I have rarely seen any foreign batsman bat like this in Indian conditions. I thought a score of 230 was achievable, there was not much in the pitch. We did not bat well to reach the score. I went and saw where we bowled, we bowled in the right areas.

Bowlers performed well – Rohit

Rohit, however, praised the Indian bowlers. Rohit said that when you end the day, you analyze what went good and what was not good. The bowlers followed the plans really well, but you have to admit Pope played well. Overall, we failed as a team. You need to be very brave, which I think we weren't. We wanted to take some chances, we did not take risks with the bat. But it can happen. This was the first game of the series, I hope people will learn from it.
