India lost the fourth test match at The Rose Bowl Cricket Stadium by 60 runs against England. As a result, India lost the series by 3-1. Post this, Twitterati urged the Indian coach Ravi Shashtri to resign. Virender Sehwag, who is the cricket expert with India TV, lashed out at Shashtri for Indiaā€™s shoddy performance at the fourth test series. He said that the worldā€™s best teams are made by performance on the ground. (India loses the Fourth Test Match)

"Best travelling teams are made by performances on the ground and not by sitting in the dressing rooms and talking about it. One can talk whatever they want to talk about but unless the bat does the talking, they can never become the best travelling team," Sehwag said to IndiaTV. Sourav Ganguly too slammed the team management after Indiaā€™s horrendous performance at the Test series. "Regarding Ravi Shastri, he has to be held accountable for the results along with Sanjay Bangar regarding why only one batsman is performing whereas others seem to have taken backward steps. Unless these questions are answered an overseas series win in the three countries looks impossible for India," he said.

Dada also went on to slam the Indian batting line up. "This batting lineup hasn't been making runs for a long time now. If you look at India's overseas performances from 2011 until now, they have lost every big series. When Virat Kohli is at the crease it seems that he is playing against totally different bowlers as compared to when the other batsmen are batting. I believe that the batting ability of the current players has gone down. There are a lot of reasons for this. Firstly, the players are short of confidence, whether you look at (Cheteshwar) Pujara or (Ajinkya) Rahane, you'll find that four years ago, the latter was matching Kohli shot-by-shot in Adelaide which is not the case at the moment. The same goes for Pujara too," the former India captain said to a news channel.
