'Need To Understand Why It Has Happened Twice', Says Nayar On India Losing Wickets In A Cluster
But Dunith Wellalage: For the second time in as many games, the Indian batting order suffered an implosion after Rohit Sharma’s typical blazing start, and this time, it resulted in a 32-run defeat to Sri Lanka in the second ODI at the R Premadasa Stadium.
Abhishek Nayar, India’s assistant coach, admitted the team management will be trying to understand why the side’s batting order has crumbled in both matches of its ongoing series against Sri Lanka, where the pattern of falling in a heap once the spinners come over has stood out.
"Was it a shock? I would say yes, there is a surprise. But you anticipate and understand that in these conditions, the game can turn on its head because there is so much spin on offer. Even if you look at the last game, it was relatively easy to score against the new ball. As the ball got older, the conditions when batting second got slightly tougher.
