Mohali: Fans are worried about India’s preparations for the T20 World Cup after losing the first match of the T20 series against Australia after being eliminated from the Asia Cup without even seeing the final. Although it can be said that they lost the Asia Cup due to the absence of Ravindra Jadeja, Harshal Patel and Jasprit Bumrah, despite the return of Harshal against Aussies, the result was a defeat for India.
Even if Bumrah returns, RP Singh, a former Indian player and a member of the Indian team that won the T20 World Cup in 2007, points out that there are many problems that India needs to solve before the World Cup. Even if Bumrah comes back, Bumrah may also concede runs in some matches. RP Singh asked in an interview to Cricbuzz what India would do in such matches.
These losses do not bode well for India ahead of the T20 World Cup. When we were knocked out of the Asia Cup without even seeing the final, we thought that Bumrah and Harshal had lost because there was nothing in the bowling line-up. But Harshel was in the team against Aussies yesterday. Although Bumrah is in the squad for the World Cup, he may also concede runs in some matches. As the World Cup approaches, India’s performance is going down.
‘Why did you lose? Not only to beat, but also to buy’; Behold the trolls of defeat
There are many things that India need to address urgently before the World Cup.In yesterday’s match, India could not dominate the Aussies even once while bowling. Apart from Umesh Yadav’s two-wicket over, the Aussies could never be put under pressure. Their batsmen kept hitting boundaries.
The problem with Indian bowlers is not because of lack of talent, but because they cannot bowl with proper plans. How does the third man keep the fielder inside the circle when deciding to bowl wide yorkers? India needs to change its strategy. Otherwise, India will not be in the picture in the matches where they defend 150 runs, RP Singh said.
He is India’s real problem, says Gavaskar
In the first match of the T20 series against Australia, India lost by four wickets. Chasing a target of 209 runs, the Aussies reached the target with four balls to spare.
