Joe Root says he got things wrong in Lord’s defeat

(UTV | ENGLAND) – Captain Joe Root offered to take responsibility for England’s miserable defeat by India in the second Test.

Root’s side lost control during a chaotic unbroken ninth-wicket stand of 89 between Mohammad Shami and Jasprit Bumrah on the final morning at Lord’s.

England were then bowled out for 120 inside two sessions to lose by 151 runs.

“Tactically I got a few things wrong, and a lot falls on my shoulders,” Root said.

“The game could have looked very different if I had managed things slightly different, and I will learn from that experience.”
