Win Projections to be updated soon
Abhinav Mukund, a former Indian international, stated his dissatisfaction with Hardik Pandya’s leadership. Notably, India was humiliated by the West Indies in the series finale, losing by eight wickets in Florida.
As a result, the Men in Blue have come under heavy fire. The batting team once more failed to leave a lasting impression, and Abhinav Mukund claims that skipper Hardik Pandya wasn’t very accurate with the bowling changes.
Axar Patel should have begun the bowling alongside Arshdeep Singh, but the spinner ultimately only bowled one over, according to the former cricketer-turned-analyst. Additionally, he stated that although it wasn’t necessary, the team modified its tactics as a result of the rain.
“Hardik Pandya’s bowling adjustments appeared to be quite jumbled. I say perplexed because I believe that decision over who would bowl in the powerplay was influenced by the rain. Axar Patel, who was the winning combination in the last match, is where I would have started. When speaking to Jio Cinema, Mukund stated that Axar Patel ought to have began the bowling with the new ball with Arshdeep Singh.
“In my opinion, not many things from the 4th T20I would have changed. The terrible weather cutting short 5 overs of play, I believe, was a concern for India, the 33-year-old continued.
As part of his ongoing bowling experiment, Hardik Pandya uses Jaiswal and Tilak.
It was a brave move by Hardik Pandya to try Yashasvi Jaiswal and Tilak Varma out with the ball in the last T20I, especially with the series on the line. Paras Mhambrey, India’s bowling coach, had earlier stated that the team management would do so. Notably, Tilak Varma bowled two overs and picked up a wicket whereas Jaiswal only bowled one over and allowed 11 runs.
In the long run, the youngster’s bowling might be very wise, but as of right now, that doesn’t seem to be the case as Team India suffered another humiliating loss. In order to test the group in front of the Asia Cup 2023 and the ODI World Cup 2023, Axar Patel, who was bowling well, was only allowed one over in the middle.
