The officials can also take action if they sense the need to do so. Legendary Sunil Gavaskar urged the BCCI not to take any decision in a hurry, as a rushed step can do more damage than doing good for the team.
The Board appointed Shreyas Iyer as India's T20I captain, replacing Suryakumar Yadav. The Men in Blue have so far played six T20Is with Iyer as captain; in all games, India lost. India faced strong playing conditions against Ireland and England, but the performance remained below par throughout the competition.
"The BCCI is going to do a review of the defeat, and there are rumours that a few heads could roll. That would be an extreme step, for barely four months ago India were the world champions and still are No. 2 in the ICC rankings,” Sunil Gavaskar wrote in a column for Sportstar.
Sunil Gavaskar mentions that even in flat pitches, batters struggle
"There’s been a lot of talk about how playing on flat batting pitches has spoiled the Indian batters. Even on the so-called flat pitches in the IPL, most of the Indian batters struggled against the short ball. That is more of a technical failing. With the weight on the front foot and the back foot locked, there is simply no transfer of weight to deal with a ball climbing towards the face,” he added.
Sunil Gavaskar asks BCCI to increase the length of the boundaries
"The short boundaries are also to blame, as many of the sixes hit just about clear the boundary rope and so could be catches elsewhere. This has to be looked at urgently if India is to reclaim the ODI title on the faster, bouncier pitches in South Africa. Every ground in India can have longer boundaries, but is there the will for that? That is the question. We shall soon see," Sunil Gavaskar added.
