Tonight, we saw the departure of the defending T20 champions from the world cup. A very close match indeed, but India never played the match to their full potential. India looked jittery and nervous when they won the toss and opted to field. Many simple misfields showed that the team was not at all confident to defend their crown. However, Indian bowlers did do a decent job in restricting England to 153. The Indian batsmen got off to a poor start but the downfall of India came when the decision to send Jadeja came about. England was already exploiting India’s weakness to play short pitch bowling. In a time where the team was struggling, India should have sent their senior players like Yuvraj to handle the situation. The next game of India is versus South Africa, and I wouldn’t be surprised if their pace attack further exploits the weakness of the Indians to play short pitch bowling. Back to the practice pitch boys!!!!
