MS Dhoni said, ‘We did not get any big partnership and some more partnerships, use and we will be fine. What is important is to see the circumstances, in some matches we have done well, support your strength and play the shot you can play. Our opener is a good opener, play authentic cricket shots, they do not slog or try to hit across the line. But it is important that we do not take pressure on ourselves by looking at the scoreboard. If we start looking for 60 runs in the powerplay with this lineup, then it will be very difficult for us.
Players will have to improve after seeing the mistake…
After a one -sided defeat, Dhoni also said that the team needs intensive thinking and the players will have to improve after seeing the mistake. Dhoni said, ‘Not just today, many times in this season, things have not gone in our favor. We have to see where we are making mistakes and they have to improve. We need intensive thinking. The situation was challenging but we should have dealt with him. There were not enough runs on the scoreboard. The ball was coming to a standstill and it is difficult in front of the spin invasion. If you lose the wicket, it is difficult to return to the match.
