Stuart Broad blasts former players for criticism of England defeat

England bowler Stuart Broad has hit back at criticism targeted at him and his teammates following their first-Test defeat to India in Ahmedabad.

The visitors were hit with a 1-0 deficit in the series today following a tough five-day Test, which sparked criticism from pundits and former players claiming that England got their tactics wrong.

Broad tweeted: "Before u listen to too many ex playing 'experts' being negative, ask them if they ever won a Test series in India....#28years."

England begin the second Test against India on Friday in Mumbai.
