Jack Leach supports Joe Root claim after Alastair Cook's "deluded" England criticism

England spinner Jack Leach has insisted the side's recent series defeat to the West Indies was "a positive one", echoing comments made by captain Joe Root.

Leach has stated that "some real good stuff happened" in the Caribbean, despite England losing the series in humiliating fashion with a ten-wicket defeat in Grenada. Speaking to BBC Radio Bristol, he said: "We had a good trip out there, we all felt like it was a positive one.

"Although we lost the series and on the outside things can be looking quite negative, I think we feel on the inside some real good stuff happened." And Leach's comments echo those made by Root in the immediate aftermath of the loss.
