The Men in Blue collapsed to 201 in 83.5 overs during the first innings. Marco Jansen was the pick of the bowlers for the visitors with a six-wicket haul.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Kris Srikkanth questioned the team selection and the constant changes under Gautam Gambhir. Srikkanth said that Axar Patel should not be dropped, given his consistency across formats.
“Every alternate match, someone is making a debut. They can say trial and error. Gautam Gambhir can say whatever he wants. I don’t care. I have been a former captain and a former chairman of selectors; I know what I'm talking about. I am not talking through my hat. You need consistency. I gave credit to Indians when they did brilliantly in England, right?”
Indians Edging to Slips to Simon Harmer and Keshav Maharaj - Kris Srikkanth
“I don’t understand. I saw Kuldeep Yadav’s quotes (at the end of the second day’s play) about how ‘pitch is a road, nothing happens ‘. Then today we see Indians edging to slips to Simon Harmer and Keshav Maharaj. And also getting out to bouncers from Marco Jansen.. five wickets to short balls!" Srikkanth stated.
Rishabh Pant Runs Down and Slogs - Kris Srikkanth
Kris Srikkanth also slammed Indian batters for their shot selection. He criticised Rishabh Pant for rushing down the pitch to heave at Marco Jansen, adding that the captain must read the match situation better.
India were in a comfortable position at one stage at 95-1, but wickets kept falling at regular intervals. Pant advanced down the pitch to attack Marco Jansen, only to edge the ball to the wicketkeeper. The reckless shots and the Proteas’ bowling ensured India conceded a massive first-innings lead.
