It's unlucky but he's definitely brought that on himself with the way he was backing up, gloves in hand and all

The way he batted early on was fine. 15 overs left with 8 wickets to come and pushing around for singles was not. Seems to have got the right idea now anyways.
Man I dwta. Doesn't matter whether you get boundaries or not as long as you're going at better than a run a ball in overs 35-40 surely.

FMD that's a **** way to get out but always looks hilarious if you're not the batsman

Not when you have 8 wickets in hand and 2 set batsmen at the crease on a flat wicket against up and down bowling. Can't be harsh on him for that period though as Rohit was definitely more responsible.

Wasn't terrible batting by any means, but simply being not terrible doesn't win you cricket matches most of the time.

Regardless of "how" he batted, he was going at a SR of 100 before over 40. There is no ****ing way that is "terrible". Have no idea what you guys are smoking. Sub-optimal? Maaayyyybe. Terrible? Shoot yourself.

Only one person said he's terrible, stop getting so emotional. Read my edited post anyways.

I didn't simply just say terrible, I said it would be considered a terrible innings unless he up'd his scoring rate, which he has, but still needs to really capitalize now.

Man I must be really tired because I did not notice that 44 overs had been bowled, thought it was just 41-42. India gonna be short of par again then.

If we don't have the requisite finishing power, we need to start accelerating around the 30th over mark. Won't do us much good to have wickets in hand and target the last 10.
