The performance of the Indian cricket team in the recently concluded West Indies tour has certainly raised many concerns as India just managed to win the ODI series but it lost the 5-match T20 series by 2-3. What is making people annoyed is the fact that the Indian side got defeated by a team which hasn’t even qualified for the ICC T20 World Cup. Many are defending the team by saying that the squad was weak because of the absence of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.
Recently the former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has spoken on this matter. He says that he is shocked with the results and the team should have won as Rohit and Virat are not going to be there in the team forever.
While speaking on his YouTube channel, Bhajji said, “I thought India would win that series easily. But the result has left many shocked and concerned. I was taken aback as well because the West Indies, a team that did not make the World Cup, beat us. This indeed is a big achievement for the West Indies, but a major concern for India. Yes, Kohli and Rohit weren’t there, they won’t stay for long, but this young brigade that had toured West Indies have learned a lot from this. I previously said that India can make 2-3 teams, and they still can, but the results are yet to reflect.”
Well, that is absolutely correct, Rohit and Virat will retire in a couple of years and team India should find their replacement soon.
