London, July 21 (IBNS): England skipper Alastair Cook on Monday said his team's defeat at the hands of India in Lord's on Monday was 'tough'.

"It's a tough defeat, I think we have to give India a lot of credit, they have out bowled and outbatted us," Cook said.

India created history as they won a Test match at Lord's after 28 years by beating England by 95 runs.

Ishant Sharma took seven wickets in the second innings to destroy the English batting lineup.
