NEW DELHI: India skipper Rohit Sharma on Sunday expressed disappointment with his top batsmen's performance in the opening Test against England in Hyderabad. He noted their lack of resilience and determination, contrasting it with the fighting spirit displayed by the lower-order batsmen.
Despite being set a reachable target of 231 runs, India faltered, ultimately being dismissed for 202, resulting in a 28-run loss. This defeat came after an impressive comeback by England, led by Ollie Pope's remarkable innings of 196, which laid the groundwork for their victory.
