The much-anticipated Australia tour has begun for India; however, they did not have a very convincing start to the series. The Men in Blue lost the first match to the Aussies by seven wickets in Perth after a miserable performance with the bat. They will advance to Adelaide for the second ODI, and with much time ahead of the match, the Shubman Gill-led side might be aiming at a strong bounce back.
"It is tough to suddenly go and play in Australia after playing in Delhi. But Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli came suddenly you frankly you cannot say anything. They were looking rusty. The rain was also a bit of a pain."
"In a truncated game it is in and out and it takes me time for the batters to settle. It is difficult, but I still believe India lost the match in the first ten overs. Hats off to Marsh's captaincy," he said on his YouTube channel, 'Cheeky Cheeka.'
"Irrespective of rain, we could have done better if our strategy was better" - Kris Srikkanth
"I still believe India is a better side on paper. I still defend my statement. I think our strategy was wrong, the combination was wrong, the batting order strategy was wrong, the approach was wrong," he noted.
"We cannot judge by one innings. They are world-class white-ball players," opined Srikkanth
Despite the defeat and the dismissal of the two greats for just 8 and 0, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have received immense backing from the former selector. He has also shown full faith in them to do well in the upcoming games, while mentioning that Virat Kohli often loves such challenges.
"He will take it as a challenge and do well. Similarly with Rohit also, he will play freely. I am not worried about that. Only the combination and strategy is important," he concluded.
