Two-day loss stings AT A GLANCE

-

England head coach Chris Silverwood wants to see his side use the stinging two-day loss to India in Ahmedabad to stiffen their resolve. Silverwood saw his side bowled out twice in less than 80 overs at the crease, mustering a grim total of 193 in their two innings. He made it clear his team’s batsmen must be accountabl­e. ‘‘You look at the guys we’ve got in there – your Popes, Crawleys, Sibleys. As tough as it is at the moment, hopefully this will galvanise them,’’ he said. ‘‘When they do get on flat surfaces, better surfaces, it will make them even more hungry and desperate to make sure they get runs.’’
