India lost the first Test against England despite taking a 190-run first-innings lead. It's rarely witnessed when it comes to the spin-friendly home conditions, which makes England's win in Hyderabad one of their most famous triumphs in Test history. But former England captain Michael Vaughan feels India would not have succumbed had they been led by Virat Kohli instead of Rohit Sharma.
Virat withdrew himself from the first two Tests of the series due to personal reasons; and in his absence, the Rohit-led India lost the opening Test by 28 runs while chasing 231 to win, as debutant left-arm spinner Tom Hartley foxed the Indian batters with a dream seven-wicket spell on day four of the match after Ollie Pope's knock of 196 led the visitors' fightback.
