Was the bowling right, was it in batting or in fielding? Rohit told two shortcomings in the loss of 100 runs

Was the bowling right, was it in batting or in fielding? Rohit told two shortcomings in the loss of 100 runs

Team India captain Rohit Sharma, after losing the second ODI against England, has regretted that if the Indian team wants to win the match, then he will have to take catches too. Dropping catches consistently means you are constantly squandering your chances of winning. On Thursday, the England team easily beat India by 100 runs and the match was played at Lord's Cricket Ground in London.

Catch dropped means match dropped

It was in the eighth over of the English innings when Jasprit Bumrah dropped Jason Roy's catch, followed by Jason Roy's 41-run partnership for the first wicket with Jonny Bairstow. After that the catch of David Willey off Hardik Pandya's ball was dropped by famous Krishna. At that time he was fielding at fine leg. David Willey got a good life in the 31st over, taking advantage of which he later scored 41 runs in 49 balls.

Rohit has praised his bowlers

Although Rohit praised his bowlers for being able to bundle out the British for 246 runs, he was not happy with the performance of the batsmen and the fielders.

Rohit said at the post-match presentation ceremony, 'We bowled very well. He partnered with Moeen and Willie in between. It is not that the target could not be chased, we did not reach there.

If you wanna win the game, you gotta take those catches

On Ville's dropped catch, Rohit said, "If you want to win the game, you have to take those catches... Overall, we bowled well." We didn't bat well. I thought the pitch would be better, but there was something for the bowlers. ,

Rohit also expressed concern about India's long tail order and said that one of the top-order batsmen needs to move up and get big scores.

One of the top-ranked players should last

On the long tail, he said, "It's been a long time... We have ample bowling options, but we understand that we have a long tail. One of the top-order players should bat for as long as possible... There is a lot to look forward to. We will reach there, see the conditions and adapt accordingly.

Chasing the target of 247 runs in this match, India scored only 146 runs. Rohit didn't even play the account.
