ENG vs IND: India Succumbed To Scoreboard Pressure Says Virat Kohli

By IANS News August 28, 2021 • 19:38 PM View: 1797

Skipper Virat Kohli admitted that India succumbed to scoreboard pressure after England obliterated India's batting in the first session of the fourth day of the third Test. The Indian batsmen, who had resisted on the third day, fell like a pack of cards on the fourth day, as the team collapsed to an innings and 76-run defeat.

"Basically, I will put it (collapse) down to scoreboard pressure. We knew we are up against a massive (354-run) lead after getting bowled out for 78. The pressure from English bowlers was too much, they bowled at areas which troubled us," said Kohli in the post-match presentation ceremony.
