India has had a disappointing tour of England in terms of Test series and as a result of it India now has 3 scores in the lowest team innings totals in Test Cricket in the current year. This is one record that India wouldn’t have even thought of when they began the tour of England. India’s batting have all eyes on them and they will surely be under the fire when they return back to India. Now the only thing that can save them is a extra-ordinary performance in the ODI series against England.
First let us take a look at teams with lowest innings totals in Test cricket in 2014 –

New Zealands score of 105 against India in Auckland has been the lowest score far in 2014, following which is a list of low scores by India against England. India has 4 low scores in 2014 in the Top 10. India would have had so many low scores in the Top 10 after some time. Are we yet to find batsmen for us to perform in the foreign pitches or is it just a matter of time before they perform?
