Former India pacer Karsan Ghavri has blamed a failure in the execution of plans for Jasprit Bumrah & Co’s defeat in the Birmingham Test. On Tuesday, England beat the visitors by seven wickets to finish the five-match series 2-2.

Ghavri, 71, felt Bumrah was not the ideal candidate to lead India in the decider and that former skipper Virat Kohli should have taken up that responsibility instead.
