Yes, the Rishabh Pant, Dinesh Karthik issue of not having a solid playing eleven has been resolved. In the second match, Dinesh Karthik’s place was secured as he hit a six and a boundary in the last minute to seal the win.
Problem with bowling:
Both Bumrah and Harshal Patel, who were suffering from injuries before the Asia Cup series, came to Australia for the T20I series. Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Yujvendra Sahal, Hardik Pandya and Axar Patel bowled along with them. Only Axar Patel bowled well. Everyone else batted badly and continued to deliver runs.
A bowler conceding less than 10 runs per over was considered a big deal. We also saw the cruelty of the batters flying 20 runs per over as an assault in the death overs of 17,18,19,20. As the bowling department is very weak, if the Indian batsmen score only 150-160 runs, then the Indian bowling department is so weak that it is definitely a failure.
BCCI Meeting:
After the end of the third match, captain Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravitim, the BCCI officials said, “When you asked us to form two Indian teams, we agreed to it. It doesn’t seem to have any effect. It would have been a good experience for the bowlers if the main team had been allowed to play regularly. We think Bumrah is also out of form because he has played less matches. If we go to the T20 World Cup with this team, it will be empty. Pick a firm playing eleven soon.”
Also, BCCI has decided to remove Rohit Sharma from the post of captain of the T20 team if the Indian team leaves the T20 World Cup without advancing to the finals.
