The criticism on England captain Alastair Cook is bringing his team mates together to produce a winning performance against India.

England bosses are now convinced that the squad is behind Cook and are determined to give their hundred percent against India to help the captain come out of the strong criticism.

There are plenty around the team who were left stunned at the level of the attack launched by Shane Warne and Kevin Pietersen.

Meanwhile, teammates are supporting the captain and showing faith in him.

Fast bowler Stuart Broad posted in his Sunday column that they read certain players criticizing the Australian tour but the players involved in the Sri Lanka enjoyed it very much.

He added that Cook should block out the noise on the outside and listen to the guys who are in the changing room and enjoy the great team spirit they have, the report said.
