Questions raised on bowling even after victory
In the post-match presentation, Suryakumar Yadav openly praised the team’s batting. He said that from the top order to No. 7, everyone shouldered the responsibility and performed almost flawlessly. However, he expressed concern about bowling. Surya said, “To be honest, we could have done a little better in bowling. We needed to show more cleverness and courage at important moments. In such situations, one has to be more fearless in taking decisions.” He also praised the Zimbabwean batsmen and said that they batted brilliantly under pressure, but the Indian team will work on its weaknesses before the next match.
