The England captain, Ben Stokes, urged his England side to use the chastening 4-1 series defeat in India as motivation to become better players
in the foothills of the Himalayas, insisting his players will learn from the pain of the 4-1 scoreline and stressing neither he nor his team should be written off.
“You learn from failures. Failures are an unbelievable way of showing what you’re about as a person and a team. You either let it affect you and you’re not able to climb back up that hill, or you take the failures, learn and never lose enthusiasm for what you’re trying to do.”
