Bit of a hollow win given the failings of the top order, but I'll take it.

Cmon PAE - “certain victories” is BS. The 2 games in NZ were never certain victories. Chasing 406 is top ten greatest victories of all time. McCullum played a blinder true, but he had 2 very good innings at the other end too, and it was a batting paradise. The Adelaide Test - Australia were always favourites. India (especially Kohli) got major credits for getting so close. Cape Town 2018 - low scoring game on a dicey pitch. India were only in it because of an outstanding knock by Pandya who looked like he was playing on a different surface. Maybe a bit more 2nd Innings grit would’ve been good, but it wasn’t a certain victory in any sense. Centurion 2018 - Ngidi bowled superbly. Sometimes a team gets outplayed. I’ll agree they should’ve won in Birmingham, but The Rose Bowl was never a certain victory either.
You seem to forget the great victories India have produced in Australia in recent years - including a victory in Perth....

Really pathetic display from India. These test matches are all finishing pretty much on day 4. Too much influence of ODI/T20?

KOHLI and VIJAY were making it look really easy.

ASHWIN and BHUVI made the top order look bad. they were scoring at 4 an over.

Unchanged side. Saw something today defending Bairstow for getting out to "nearly perfect deliveries." Um, I thought the consensus was his golden duck in the 2nd innings was a godawful piece of batting.

Bairstow is KILLING me. Too many cheap wickets today, probably going to finish the innings 100 runs short of a decent total.

Utter piffle from England on the best batting surface of the series.

I am not watching a dead rubber. Not seen a single delivery of this match. Indian cricketers are pathetic, disgusting, hideous and arrogant people who deserve this.
Still remember Ishant Sharma saying once to Australian players that "we also beat you 4-0 at our home". That sums up these clowns. They don't even want to try to win.
I am thinking about watching a horror movie. Let me know if you have any suggestion on that.

Maybe we should have the lower order bat first?

Dhawan seems to struggle in English conditions, never scored a 50 in seven Tests.

My conclusions from this series:
1. Buttler is making a case for Bairstow to be dispensable. 2. I love the lower order batting.
