Two extraordinary wins, with a heroic bowling performance. We all really did take pride in it, as kohli mentioned in the post match interview. But what went wrong this time? Is it AB's batting position or our Mr.dependable Washington failing with the ball. One certain flaw yesterday was not introducing Washington early, Kohli and the think tank have to take responsibility for this. Chahal is no less when compared with Sundar, but with the shorter boundary and in-form Mayank, Chahal's tendency to flight the ball did not work. We did really pull it back well in the middle overs. Cheers to Siraj for letting the momentum down twice, not once! We have seen him in the past, he is unable to deliver at death when there's pressure. You have 3 overs left of Isuru Udana, Why didn't we bowl him! We have to trust him, he has done it in the past and yes he is in-form too.
Imagine Siraj bowling to Russell instead of Udana in the game against KKR. Our position in the table would have been different. It's those small decisions that matter at the end of the day. I would back the decision of having AB to bat at the death, but Sundar is not my man. Maybe Dube, but never Sundar. We were clearly short of a batsman yesterday. Gurkeerat has done nothing wrong and he deserves his chance! Our 5 bowlers are fixed, with dube as 6th. We don't want to get in a dilemma, with having Siraj. He was clearly not bowling according to the plan. Hope Professor Mike is feeling the same.
