With all the hype that India carried to England, the broad chest got shrunk after India lost to the guest by 5 wickets. If it had been a well-fought match, it would have been an issue. But 10 catches overall and a totally shattered lower batting order of India are the main issues. In the long history of Test cricket, this is the first time that a team got defeated despite having 5 centuries on their side. In the second innings, when India was looking to declare the innings, the lower order eased the task by getting dismantled. In the first innings, India lost 7 wickets for 41 runs, and similar things happened in the second innings when India lost 6 wickets for 31 runs. Karun Nair, whose comeback was so much hyped, could not even make a mark with the bat, even misfielded in the second innings, leaking crucial runs of Ravindra Jadeja at a crucial time. Speaking about the frustrating batting, Gambhir said, "Yes, from a batting point of view, it's disappointing because, in the first inning, we lost seven wickets on 40 runs and six wickets on 30 runs in the second inning. When we had the opportunity to make around 600 runs in the first inning, we were in a situation where we could have dominated." He added, "But again, these things happen. So, hopefully, we can learn in the second test match. But the good thing was that we had opportunities all four or five days where we could have dominated this Test match."

Harry Brook, who got dismissed at 99, was given life three times, let alone the fact that he was almost out at a duck on day 2 had Bumrah not bowled a no-ball. Earlier, captain Shubman Gill acknowledged the menace, and Gambhir noted that none had done that on purpose. Gambhir said, "Catches do get dropped. The best fielders have missed catches. None of them did it on purpose." India dropped 10 catches during the Headingley Test — the highest they have recorded in a men’s Test since November 2011, when they also shelled 10 against the West Indies. Notably, this number equals the total dropped across their previous six Tests combined.
