The ODI series once morest the West Indies was one of India’s biggest tests in recent times. Apart from the senior players including Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, India fielded young players once morest the West Indies. But India failed a lot in the middle order batting and so on in the series.
Indian player Pragyan Ojha has now responded regarding the same. Ojha says India’s middle-order batting has been disappointing in the absence of senior players. And Ojha added that India might not pace the innings properly in the series.
In the three-match series, India won two matches and suffered a miserable defeat in one match. This is what Oja is talking regarding now. “When we play an ODI, the most important thing is how we pace the innings. But in the ODI series once morest the West Indies, the Indian middle order collapsed in the absence of Virat and Rohit.
I agree with India resting Virat and Rohit. But it cannot be said that India has succeeded in this experiment. The series has helped give new players more responsibility ahead of the World Cup. Anyway, all these young players should make good use of the opportunity,” says Ojha.
“They have to understand how to pace an innings. Especially in ODIs. All these issues in the Indian team should be resolved immediately. So even if there are no senior players, these young players can become a crucial presence in the competition. I see the series once morest the West Indies as an opportunity for these young players to excel,” adds Ojha.
Not only in ODIs, but also in Twenty20s, India is leaving the senior players aside. Tilak Verma was given a chance in the team led by Hardik Pandya in the first Twenty20. Tilak Varma has been able to take advantage of it. However, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar, Sanju Samson and others did not perform well in the first Twenty20. It is hoped that India will overcome these limitations and win the upcoming matches.
