MS Dhoni-led India suffered a 3-1 defeat in their 2014 tour of England, despite a famous win at Lord’s. Dhoni’s successor Virat Kohli also suffered a similar result on India’s last trip to the UK, losing 3-1.
Kohli however led India to a 2-1 lead before the postponement of the fifth Test last year. Now having handed over the reins to Rohit Sharma, the onus will be on the Hit-Man to take India home and clinch a historic series victory.
