Summary at a Glance

Kevin Pietersen has claimed that England “didn’t try” during their ODI series defeat to India, accusing Jos Buttler’s side of not holding a single training session during a disastrous trip.

“I’m sorry, but I am absolutely gobsmacked that England did not have ONE team practice session since losing the 1st ODI and losing the T20 series,” Pietersen said on X, formerly Twitter.

England suffered a 3-0 ODI defeat in India, with former batter Pietersen claiming that only Joe Root had netted during the series.

There also cannot be one player in that England side that can sit on the plane leaving India and saying to themselves, they did everything they can to try help England win.

England have struggled significantly against spin since arriving in India, but according to former batter Pietersen, they have not necessarily sought to solve their issues in the nets.
