Former England opening batsman Geoff Boycott said that the English batsmen's failure to understand the left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav was one of the main reasons behind the side's defeat against India.

The visitors started the five-match test series with a win in Hyderabad but later on went to lose all the remaining matches. India's spin wizard Kuldeep Yadav ended the series with 19 wickets in four matches.
