Thanjk you.

I think India need to go away from this series and have a good long hard look at themselves, clearly a very talented side but mentally they're shot to pieces and have been since the 2nd test.
Great to see England do so well over this summer but been massively disappointed with India to be honest - Dravid can walk away head held high, not many others though
Failed to get over 300 in any innings and by the end of it most of them couldn't be bothered to have a net in the morning, they were saying on the Radio that Dhoni didn't leave the dressing room all day until he had to walk into the middle
They need to completely re evaluate after this down to 3 in the world behind South Africa and seemingly with alot of players not bothered with Test Cricket.

As for England
That is the first time India have lost a test series since 2008 (i think).
Fantastic chase by England. Great knock by Bairstow on his debut. Awful tour for India, must be desperate to get home although can't see them getting too good a welcome
I can't believe quite how bad India have been on this tour, I think Dravid and perhaps Doni are about the only ones that can walk away with any sort of pride, we played really well but my God India were woeful!
It won't be an easy arrival back home in India for them, completely cricket nuts nation and rightly will be on the players backs after this I think!
Yeah quite surprised Lumb has just disappeared like he has - injury issues maybe?
Bopra played excellently last night but he's got to be in the last chance saloon for England, so many chances he's had now and when it gets to the big games he never delivers and falls apart, hopefully that performance will help him kick on and become more consistent but I'm not convinced it will
