Team India lost due to Ravindra Jadeja and Gambhir? (PC-PTI)
Team India lost by 22 runs in Lord’s Test. Team India, who is chasing just 193 runs against England, was reduced to just 170 runs. The interesting thing is that after this defeat, former players are questioning Ravindra Jadeja, the best batting. In gestures, players like Ravi Shastri, Sanjay Manjrekar, Sunil Gavaskar, Mohammad Azharuddin are questioning Team India’s batting approach. Rabindra Jadeja is also questioned as a question on Head Coach Gautam Gambhir, let us tell you how.
Rabindra Jadeja made a mistake?
When Team India lost the Lord’s Test, Ravindra Jadeja remained unilateral unilaterally. The player remained unbeaten on 61 runs in 181 balls. After the defeat of Team India, every Indian fan was disappointed but he was also saluting Jadeja, but former cricketers said one such thing which was like a big question on Jadeja. Whether Ravi Shastri or Sunil Gavaskar all said that if the pressure on England was made by playing some aggressive shots during Jadeja and Nitish Reddy’s partnership, then the situation would have been different.
Ravi Shastri said after the Lord’s Test, ‘I think Jadeja and Nitish made some mistake. Once the partnership between these two had become more than 15-20 runs, then either one should have scored fast runs. Sunil Gavaskar also said the same thing. According to Gavaskar 6A partnership of 0-70 runs could have made a difference in the match. If Jadeja took a risk against the root and Bashir, the result would have been something else.
Sanjay Manjrekar raised questions
Sanjay Manjrekar even said that Team India was not playing for victory. According to Manjrekar, seeing the batting of Nitish Reddy and Jadeja, it seemed that both were playing for a draw. Manjrekar believes that both batsmen should have taken a little risk.
Question on Gautam Gambhir
Now you understand how to question Jadeja is like a question on Gautam Gambhir. Actually the entire team plays on the head coach and captain’s strategy. If Jadeja and Nitish Reddy kept the pace of increasing their partnership slow or whatever approach they kept, there will be a plan of Gambhir somewhere. Generally, players keep getting messages from the dressing room. Now the question is whether Jadeja alone tried to chase the target in this style. The answer is probably not. Well, Team India has now lost the Lord’s Test. England are now 2–1 in the series. The next Test will be played on July 23 at Manchester. It will be interesting to see how Team India will return.
