Asia Cup 2022 Rohit bottled in team selection itself - Furious fans react as Team India lose to Sri Lanka and are on brink of elimination

By Anuj Nitin Prabhu Modified 07 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Fans trolled Rishabh Pant, Bhuvneshwar Kumar as well as the team management for the embarrassing loss It was deja vu for India as for the second time in three days, they lost a game on the second-last ball in the Asia Cup, this time against Sri Lanka on Tuesday, September 7. Once again, Arshdeep Singh had just seven runs to play with and yet he took the game to the penultimate delivery. Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka missed the delivery and started taking a run. Rishabh Pant collected the ball, took aim, and missed the run-out despite all three stumps being visible and the non-striker Bhanuka Rajapaksa not even in the frame. Arshdeep threw the ball to the non-striker's end and missed as well, allowing the batters to take a comfortable two and win the game. The Men in Blue were in shock as they are now on the brink of being knocked out of the Asia Cup. Fans on Twitter were furious about a number of factors, like the team management ignoring Dinesh Karthik for Deepak Hooda and then not using the latter's bowling. Even Pant was trolled as he failed to hit the stumps. Bhuvneshwar Kumar also failed to deliver for the second game in a row, conceding 15 runs in the 19th over. Here are some of the reactions: Harbhajan Turbanator@harbhajan_singhWhere is Umran malik (150km speed) ? Why Deepak chahar (top quality swing bowler )wasn’t there ? Tell me if these guys don’t deserve the chances ?? Why Dinesh Karthik don’t get chances consistently?? Disappointing181252549Where is Umran malik (150km speed) ?

Now even though your pacers were struggling you had no choice but to play them or an extra spinner to cover up the blunder.

Team India have plenty to reflect on going ahead

Team India's ultra-aggressive batting approach has cost them two games in a row as they haven't had enough batting left at the death. The likes of Dinesh Karthik will be gutted to miss out as those in his place haven't delivered once again. This Asia Cup debacle has also raised questions on whether the team even knows their best XI. With the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel injured, the depth in Indian cricket that was bragged about, failed to deliver. The Men in Blue will now need to hope that Pakistan lose both their games to have an outside chance of qualifying for the final.
