Nothing changed except the result, a week back Indian team created historical victory in Lords ground. Now the same team has lost an interesting match with sudden fall of wickets. It’s not a good day to Indian cricket fans who wished to see India to won a title outside.
In the space of 8 balls, forget the target, even the time for stumps on Thursday seemed light years away. Things would go from bad to worse — 26/0 would change to 29/2. As batsmen, after surviving Anderson and Stuart Broad with the new ball, kept succumbing to the off-spin of Moeen Ali or Joe Root, India found themselves in a hole at 112/4. Today we stumped out at 178 by completing the match with loss.
The questions of Dhoni retirement again came into picture after this loss. Of-course team need some revamp to re-skill the players. Even fans are expecting a remarkable victory for Indian team in foreign countries.
