Shane Watson feels that India's tour Down Under at the end of the year would be much better compared to England.

'Although it is a sad day, I can do so with a big smile on my face knowing I have given everything and there is nothing left in the tank. I have achieved more than I could have ever imagined and feel very privileged to have played for such a long time,' said Alastair Cook

After England defeated India by 60 runs to win the fourth Test in Southampton and claim the five-match series 3-1, captain Joe Root said he was happy with his team’s "exceptional" performance. He also praised Man of the Match Moeen Ali, who took nine wickets on his return to Test cricket.

India captain Virat Kohli defended his premier spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who failed to make much of an impact on a pitch which helped spinners in the fourth Test against England. Kohli also said England deserved to win the match. The hosts won by 60 runs after India failed to chase 245 in Southampton.

All-rounder Moeen Ali has credited his county form with Worcestershire for his five-wicket haul against India in the ongoing fourth Test at Southampton. The off-spinner took 5/63 on the second day. He had scored a double century and bagged six wickets recently for his county side.

India’s assistant coach Sanjay Bangar heaped praise on Cheteshwar Pujara after the No 3 batsman rescued the visitors with a gritty century on the second day of the fourth Test against England in Southampton. Pujara’s unbeaten 132 helped India take a slender 27-run lead.

Ali briefly gave England the initiative for the first time in the Test by taking four wickets in an inspired spell either side of the tea interval, including two in two balls to remove Ravichandran Ashwin and Mohammed Shami. That plunged India from 181-4 to 195-8

Sam Curran said that England was taken by surprise with the amount of lateral movement India generated throughout the day.
