‘Atrocious’: Shreyas Iyer on India’s record loss vs England
Nottingham: India captain Shreyas Iyer said his side had been “atrocious” after suffering their worst ever T20 defeat, in terms of runs, during a humiliating thrashing by England at Trent Bridge on Tuesday. India were blown away by fast bowlers Jofra Archer and Josh Tongue in a crushing 125-run loss.

England posted 201-7 and T20 world champions India collapsed to 76 all out inside 12 overs. “It was atrocious,” Iyer told Sky Sports. “I can’t use a better word. Losing by such a big margin isn’t acceptable. We fell short, our execution was awful,” he added. India have their task cut out when they take on England in the series-deciding fourth T20I tonight.
