'Paupered' by a 'crafty maestro'

India's media on Monday lashed out at "abysmal batting" that led to a crushing innings defeat by England in the second Test at Lord's.

Mail Today called India's performance a "humiliating defeat" while The Hindu newspaper's headline said "Another abysmal batting display sends India to its doom" after the team were bowled out for 107 and 130.

A Hindustan Times headline read: "India shamed at Lord's as bastmen surrender again".

"For the World No.1 Test team that vowed to play aggressive cricket, its credentials in tough overseas conditions lay tattered amid a batting crisis," the newspaper added.

The Times of India headlined its story "India turn paupers at Lord's." It hailed England pacer Jimmy Anderson, who took nine wickets in the match, as a "crafty maestro".

Former Test batsman VVS Laxman said on Twitter that "caught in unfavourable conditions, not reading what the opposition threw, saw India lose the Lord's Test tamely without showing a fight. Hopefully lessons are learned quickly and the rest of the batsmen start applying themselves."

What they said

I think we got the combination a bit off before the game. 2-0 down, the only option is to come out positive, make it 2-1 and make it an exciting series.

- Virat Kohli

Can't imagine any team in the world faring any better than India have (including England if they had to play themselves!) 

- Graeme Swann

Excellent spells of fast bowling by @jimmy9 and @StuartBroad8, with a fine performance by @chriswoakes.  We've got to pull up our socks and produce better cricket.

- Sachin Tendulkar

Kohli looks like he is in a lot of pain but also looks better than anyone else
