England vs India 2018: Players who disappointed the most 

Head coach Ravi Shastri made an opinion that this Indian side is the best Indian side in overseas conditions in the last 15-20 years. But, Virat Kohli's India has yielded to yet another overseas defeat, a 4-1 loss to England in a five-Test series.

"As hard as our guys tried, England were one-up on us there. Nothing to take away (from them), the endeavour of this team is to travel well, compete and win. If you look at the last three years, we have won nine matches overseas and three series (against West Indies and twice in Sri Lanka)," said Ravi Shastri India's head coach.

India lost a hard-fought Test series 4-1 against England and the Indian team showed flashes of brilliance and performed well in patches. Experts felt this was India's best chance of winning a Test series in England, as the England team wasn't in the best of form and was looking extremely vulnerable. But unfortunately, India couldn't capitalize on the situation and lost the series 4-1.

There were certain names who failed to live up to the expectations. With the competition for a place in the team being very tough, players who were expected to perform well failed to deliver which made it difficult for the team to dominate.

We'll look at three players who disappointed the most.

---

#1 Keaton Jennings (England)

He has found different ways to get out in this series. Both India and England, have had their own opening woes. Jennings made his debut against India in 2016 and scored a century. He looked very promising and this series at home was a chance for him to prove his mettle. Jennings averaged just over 18 in their recent 4-1 series victory over India and has not scored a Test century since his debut knock in Mumbai in 2016.

England opener Keaton Jennings faces a nervous wait to know if he is part of their plans for next month`s tour of Sri Lanka but his ability on spinning wickets could work in his favour, coach Trevor Bayliss said.

#2 Shikhar Dhawan (India)

Shikhar Dhawan

Instead of him being dropped for the second Test, he was called back in for the third Test and played rest of the matches despite the fact that Prithvi Shaw was called in as the standby opener for last two matches of the series. He played rash shots and gave away his wicket after looking set for a big one.

He failed to score even a single fifty in the series. Shikhar Dhawan's terrible run in overseas Tests continued in the series against England. In the four matches that he has played in this series, he has scored only 162 runs at an average of 23.

#3 Ajinkya Rahane (India)

Ajinkya Rahane

Being the vice-captain of the team, Ajinkya Rahane was quite awful in the Test series against England. In England, he was expected to be one of the leaders with the bat for India. However, he was only the fourth highest run-getter for the visitors - 257 runs in five matches at 25.70 and two half-centuries.

He has a brilliant record playing in overseas condition but this time apart from the 81 in the first innings of the third Test and a fighting 51 in the last innings of the fourth Test, Rahane looked flat in the series. His overseas batting average was 55 until last year, but he has not been impressive in last one year, as a result, his average dropped significantly.
