Following the loss in the first Test match against England, Team India skipper Shubman Gill admitted that the lower-order collapse led them to the unwanted result.

"It was a brilliant Test match. We had our chances, we dropped catches and our lower-order didn`t contribute enough, but proud of the team and overall a good effort," said Gill in the post-match presentation.

This is the first time in Indian cricket history that a team has suffered defeat despite registering five individual centuries. Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, and Gill scored one century each, whereas Rishabh Pant smashed two centuries during the match.
