Poor bowling on first day cost England the game, 28 wides and byes.

India should never have got to almost 400 in that 2nd innings either.
Oh well, was still an excellent series. We have a lot of players to come back from injury too

Excellent series, no need to be picked apart IMO, one of the most engrossing series I have seen in years........enjoyed every minute

I'm getting a bit sick and tired of England gifting wins to opposition teams. What was Brook thinking? England didn't need to get the runs all on day four? He threw his wicket away, Duckett too.

Maybe, but that's the way they play and what gets them into winning positions to begin with.

I don’t know how important winning is for England.
Test cricket is in real trouble and we are playing lots and actually keeping it viable here.
It’s not the same elsewhere, much less test cricket being played in front of falling numbers of supporters.
So if we lose the top order to reverse sweeps and failing to leave good balls alone - well at least we still get to complain about it.
when I am sat in my garden in 2042 if I am listening to test cricket at all it may have to be some sort of composite fixture with lower division players making a South of England v North of England series.

Glenn McGrath predicts England will be whitewashed in the 2025-26 Ashes, backing Australia to win the series 5-0.
The former Australia bowler, a six-time Ashes winner, always makes this prediction and did so before the 2023 series, which ended in a 2-2 draw, with the tourists retaining the urn.
England have not won an Ashes series since 2015, drawing two and losing two, and have not won a series - or indeed a Test - in Australia since 2010-11.
"It's very rare for me to make a prediction, isn't it? And I can't make a different one - 5-0," McGrath told BBC Radio 5 Live.
"I'm very confident with our team. When you've got Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Nathan Lyon firing in their home conditions, it's going to be pretty tough.
"Plus, that track record England have had, it'd be interesting to see if they can win a Test."
