England’s collapse against India the latest in growing trend

England subsided to a painful 151-run defeat against India at Lord’s after failing to bat 60 overs on the final day of the second Test.

Needing to bat for around two sessions – or more improbably chase down 272 for victory – England were all out for 120 in 51.5 overs to fall 1-0 behind in the five-match series.

Here, the PA news agency looks at other recent instances where England’s batting has let them down.
