Indian cricket team suffered a demoralising loss to England in the fifth rescheduled Test in Edgbaston. Despite setting a huge target of 378 for England in the fourth innings, they could not defend it.
While players like Rishabh Pant and Cheteshwar Pujara played well, the performances of players like Shubmann Gill, Shreyas Iyer among others left a lot to be desired.
Former Indian cricket team player and ex-BCCI selector Jatin Paranjape delved into the areas where India fell short in the loss. "There were two or three pieces in the game where India should have done better.
In Test matches, third innings are very important and I thought India were diffident and timid in their third innings. They should have come out with more purpose.
