"There are two alternatives for us at this moment," India skipper MS Dhoni said at the post-match question and answer session after his side had lost the second One-Day International in Brisbane by seven wickets, on Friday (January 15).
"It is possible that, we put weight on the batsmen by scoring 330 or ask them (Australia) to bat first. These are the two choices that we have, we will observe and choose what suits us the best."
The Indians, for the second time in succession, neglected to safeguard a score that was in abundance of 300. India had scored 309 for 3 in the opening ODI at Perth subsequent to choosing to bat, however Steven Smith and George Bailey consolidated to help their side win in a lope. The situation was much the same in Brisbane as India, on the back of Rohit Sharma's second sequential century, scored 308 for 8. This time around Aaron Finch, Shaun Marsh and Bailey were around to take their side to a 2-0 arrangement lead.
The truth of the matter is that the remark about the alternatives reflects what Dhoni at present thinks about the side. Batting is plainly the office that will win him diversions - either by raking up a score that the restriction will get scared by, or by computing and pursuing any score the Australians indent up.
"So now, as a group we need to win independent of which office has not been doing admirably. In this way, I think, we'll need to score 20-30 more runs and that will put a great deal of weight on the batsmen, on the grounds that from the minute you take watch, on the back of your brain, you'll considering, we'll need to score 330-340. That will put a considerable measure of weight," he said.
"I think, the position we are in, in the arrangement at this moment, well need to score more runs and certainly we'll go hard. In any case, in the meantime, you need to acknowledge how hard you need to go. Today, we began our trudge before, however lost a couple of wickets and they executed their arrangements well and yorkers well which made it more troublesome for the batsmen to score.
"Its constantly great to have a set batsman in the last couple of overs, however it wont dependably happen you might lose a couple of wickets. That is unquestionably something on our psyches and we connected it in this diversion. It didn't work since they arranged and executed well. Ideally in the following amusement, we'll come join in the festivities more openly in light of the fact that we know we need to score runs. On the other hand we win the hurl and field first and pursue down whatever aggregate they score."
Dhoni additionally pondered his bowlers' poor execution. India knocked down some pins with life amid the first hour, yet soon lost steam as various open doors were missed. India additionally yielded upwards of seven wides which goaded the commander. He additionally indicated that the side will keep on adhering to the two-spinner blend.
"I think in both the diversions we have given a decent measure of additional items, and that takes that number of keeps running off the aggregate score. On great wickets, unquestionably it does make a difference. One of the fundamental things is execution. It's not about arranging, what's vital is the means by which reliably you can hit one range, how reliably you recognize the issues and you execute your arrangements well. On the off chance that the execution is correct, we won't be discussing such a large number of wides and additional items.
"In the event that your bleeding edge seamers are going for runs, then it's troublesome for somebody such as Rishi Dhawan to come in. He might bowl well, yet it'll be somewhat troublesome for him due to the field confinements. He is not some individual who bowls fast, and in the meantime, in the center overs you have to bowl a considerable measure of spots. That is the place you need to pick in case you're in an ideal situation playing with a two-spinners blend. Despite everything I feel this 3-2 (3 pacers and 2 spinners) blend looks the best. In the event that some person arrived who could bowl a touch of crease up, that aides, however we don't generally have that," Dhoni included.
India might have lost their way amid the barrier of 308, however the score could have been much higher had they benefited from the stage set by Rohit (124), Virat Kohli (59) and Ajinkya Rahane (89). India could just figure out how to score 53 pursues Rohit was released in the 43rd over - that is a scoring rate of around seven an over with seven wickets close by.
"We attempted our best to score, and by the day's end what is vital is execution," said Dhoni.
"I feel they rocked the bowling alley well in the last 10 overs. It's generally troublesome in light of the fact that you continue losing more wickets and it's troublesome for the batsmen to come in and straightaway play the top dogs. I have constantly said it's a standout amongst the most troublesome things to do. Extraordinarily when the bowlers are executing their arrangements - they're playing great yorkers, it makes it more troublesome for the batsmen."
It used to be formulae for accomplishment for MS Dhoni, however it's the second time now that India have neglected to protect a sum of 300+ in the wake of choosing to bat first. Dhoni asked his players to take more weight and get a higher score in the following three must-win recreations.
"In cricket, you need to perform well all through the match. In addition critical is the means by which you execute your arrangements. In the event that you make enough keeps running according to the surface, how are the bowlers reacting after that? That is critical. You cannot win a match just by scoring runs or you can't score just 280 and say the bowlers need to win the match. Both divisions need to move forward. Scoring 300 in consecutive matches is very extreme anyplace, however we have done it in Australia. I feel batsmen need to take some more weight on themselves now, and rather than 300, target 330-340. It may happen that in quest for that we are hard and fast for 280, however in the event that we need to win serenely, then we certainly need to score on the higher side."
With the DRS face off regarding seething on taking after George Bailey's non-rejection in the Perth ODI, it was inescapable that Dhoni was gotten some information about Rohit's Sharma's repreive while on 89. The Indian opener had edged the ball behind to manager Matthew Wade while on 89, however the umpire had ruled the choice to support India. He went ahead to make 124. Gotten some information about his response to the occurrence, Dhoni shamelessly said: "I won't answer that since last time you didn't get some information about George Bailey. It's an integral part, it happens," Dhoni ignored. source - cricbuzz
