Tendulkar Trophy Test: Following India’s loss in the first Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test at Headingley, former England cricketer Mark Butcher criticised left-arm spin-bowling all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja for his subpar bowling performance in the fourth innings.

On final day’s play, England beat India by five wickets by completing a chase of 371 in the final session. Jadeja, 36, went into the match as one of the most senior-most players, but didn’t have a great influence on deciding its outcome. He made 11 & 25 not out with the bat, while his bowling figures of 0-68 & 1-104 left a lot to be desired.

Jadeja couldn’t make much use of rough on the pitch, as opener Ben Duckett scored freely off him through a variety of reverse sweeps.
