NEW DELHI: Rohit Sharma advised Indian batters to re-evaluate their person plans towards spin bowling later a weighty and humiliating 110-run defeat within the 3rd ODI that ended in Republic of India’s first line loss to Sri Lanka in 27 years.
Republic of India used to be bowled out for 138 in 26.1 overs age chasing a goal of 249, with Sri Lankan spinners Dunith Wellalage, Maheesh Theekshana, and Jeffrey Vandersay inflicting vital harm.
“I don’t think it’s a concern, but it’s something we need to look at seriously — our individual game plans — and it’s something (that) we were definitely put under pressure within this series,” Rohit told the broadcaster when asked about India’s struggles against spin.
While acknowledging the disappointment, Rohit stressed that the series loss is not catastrophic but it highlight areas that need improvement.
“Order loss doesn’t ruthless the tip of the arena. Those guys were taking part in rather well over the presen few years; very constant. You’ll lose the atypical line,” Rohit stated.
“We lost the series and I feel there are a lot of areas we need to look at rather than the positives. We need to go back and look at what we need to do when we come up against conditions like this,” he added.
Rohit, who recently led India to a T20 World Cup victory, dismissed suggestions of complacency during the series against Sri Lanka.
“Negative, it’s a funny story. While you’re taking part in for Republic of India, there’s deny complacency,” Rohit said.
The Indian team captain admitted that their performance throughout the series was not up to the mark.
“We didn’t play games excellent cricket throughout the line and for this reason we rise right here. All through, there have been a couple of positives too. How the spinners bowled, one of the most batters within the heart as smartly,” he said.
According to Rohit, the toss was a critical factor in the ODI series. Sri Lanka first managed to tie the opener after then restricted India in the second game to win it by 32 runs.
“We need to give credit score the place credit score is due. Sri Lanka performed higher than us. We appeared on the situations and sought after to speed generation off the ball, and that’s why we went with our aggregate,” Rohit stated.
Sri Lanka captain Charith Asalanka admitted he used to be ‘glad’ later eminent his under-fire facet to a line win over Republic of India.
“I’m a happy captain right now and I think the team did all the things well throughout the series. We all knew they were a very strong batting line-up and we just wanted to back our strength, which is spin bowling,” he stated.
“We are in a really good mood right now, especially our coach (Sanath Jayasuriya). He made a few changes in the team and the boys really enjoyed the team environment.”
