Legendary India cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has put up his points following India’s another loss at the T20 World Cup to the hands of New Zealand. He talked about the game in detail and pointed out critical points where India choked to capatise.
“After six overs till 10th over we only scored 13 runs, so according to me that was a critical point where we missed out on capitalising. Those easy singles were not available and that forced our batters to play the big shot,” Tendulkar said in a Facebook video he posted following the game.
The legendary former Indian cricketer also praised Williamson’s captaincy, saying that his bowling changes from the very beginning of the game were “top-notch.”
“From the ball one, the bowling changes of Williamson were top-notch. The planning was good and in the first six overs we were 35/2 and from those 35 runs the 20 came in five overs,” said Tendulkar.
Sachin also lauded Daryl Mitchell, who got 49 runs in the chase of 111 runs vs India.
“Then Daryl Mitchell and Williamson stitched an important stand. Williamson is like a rock for the New Zealand team if he is on a wicket he controls the game well. Mitchell played some decent shots and rotated the strikes,” said Tendulkar.
