A dejected India skipper MS Dhoni today blamed his batsmen and quick bowlers in equal measure for the team’s humiliating 1-2 series loss against England.
“I think we struggled in the batting and fast bowling but our spinners were on the mark. The difference between the two bowling sides was James Anderson, he bowled really well on all the four occassions,” said Dhoni at the post match presentation ceremony.
“Most of the other fast bowlers looked quite average but he was the one who tested the batsmen quite often. I think the credit goes to him, there was not much support for fast bowlers on a track like this. But apart from that, I think the batsmen have to take the responsibilty of not putting enough runs on the board,” he said.
England broke a 28-year-old jinx by achieving a historic Test series win on Indian soil, leaving the hosts embarrassed with a 2-1 verdict.
