. Team India's third-worst series After the Test series humiliation, the T20 defeat and the ODI debacle, many Team India fans would have exhaled in relief that the misery has come to an end. The doomed tour's over but it has found a place in cricket's history book as India's third-worst performance in a combined Test and ODI series. In 86 such series where India played both ODI and Test matches, this is only the fourth time that they failed to register even a single win.
