Mahendra Singh Dhoni

India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni on Monday responsible his batsmen for the embarrassing whitewash at the hands of a stimulated England team.

"We never put par score on the board. Runs are significant to put pressure on the other side. Our batting should have perform better," stated the Indian captain, looking and sounding as calm as ever.

Dhoni's anger was necessary after they lost their final seven wickets for 21 runs, as well as the skipper, who seem to be getting out in the same manner time and again.

"The fall down wasn't good. We consideration there was a situation when we should be able to protect this game and play for a draw. We were not able to build partnerships and that was the reason."

Injury played a huge part in India's presentation and from Zaheer to Sehwag to Gambhir to Harbhajan, everyone kept pulling out of the team at main junctures.

There was also the question if players had hurried back without being fully fit as the doubt is on the issue of Zaheer and Sehwag.

"Zaheer's was a dissimilar injury. It wasn't shoulder or ankle but a constrain injury which anxious him. It's a difficult one for me to answer. Once you give a strength report, it's different. Now whether it's given or not is one more different issue. When it concerns people like Zaheer and Sehwag, you wait for them so they are existing for selection for you know what difference they can make," He said.
