England fast bowler Ollie Robinson reflected that the 4-1 Test series loss against India did not accurately reflect their performance during the tour. Despite starting the series with a win in Hyderabad, England faced setbacks as India rallied to win the remaining four Tests.
Ollie Robinson, who played one Test in the series without taking any wickets, lamented missed opportunities, including a dropped catch in the fourth Test. He felt that the final scoreline of 4-1 was not a fair representation of England’s efforts, suggesting that on another occasion, the series result could have been 3-2 in their favour.
We were really close to reversing that result. Obviously, a catch I dropped in the fourth Test would have helped us but, no, we feel like 4-1 was undeserved really.”
“We played some really good cricket and maybe on another tour it could have been 3-2 to us, who knows?” Robinson told on Sky Sports.
