Virat Kohli On The Biggest Defeat Of His Captaincy Said: The Way We Played At Lord\u2019s Was Worth The Defeat.<\/b><\/h2>\n

\"Virat<\/p>\n

India scored a total of 237 runs in both innings. The third test will be played in Nottingham on August 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n

India lost in the second test against England and lost by 159 runs. Captain Virat Kohli said after this defeat – \u201cThe way we played, I can not be proud on that. For the first time in the last five Test matches, we have completely defeated. The way England played, it was natural to win. Our game was worth losing.\u201d The first day of the match was washed day due to rain. England took just three days to defeat India and bat only once. Indian Team all out in 35.2 overs in first innings and 47 overs in second innings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Virat said – \u201cWhen you are playing, then you cannot think about the circumstances. You cannot see all these things. England\u2019s players performed well and scored. I think our team combination was wrong.\u201d He said on his injury that I am confident that I will be fit in the next five days. However, I have pain in the lower part of the back.<\/span><\/p>\n

England\u2019s Captain Joe Root said – \u201cThe victory of the second Test has reduced our tension. Our bowlers performed well. Circumstances were also in our favor, but we tried in the right direction. Johnny and Woakes performed the best. I\u2019m very happy with the performance of Woakes.\u201d Root also praised the wicket-keeper batsman Ollie Pope.<\/span><\/p>\n

India is in danger of losing the series. India has to win the third Test now which is to be played on August 18, only then there will be hope to win the series. Captain Kohli\u2019s back injury can be the reason of tension for India. If he lives outside, then the vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane can take over the captaincy of the Team in the next Test. Kohli was 37 minutes out on the fourth day of the Lord\u2019s Test. During that time, Ajinkya Rahane took over the captaincy of the Team. Ravindra Jadeja had fielded in his place.<\/span><\/p>\n

Karun Nair can be included in the team if Kohli is out of the next Test. Nair has scored triple centuries in the Chennai Test against England in 2016. Apart from them, wicket-keeper batsman Dinesh Karthik can be excluded after the poor performance in both the Tests. Rishabh Pant Test can be debuted in his place. Ravindra Jadeja could be part of the Team, replacing Kuldeep Yadav, who proved to be ineffective in the second Test.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
