Indian captain Virat Kohli on Tuesday slammed the batsmen for a poor show in the second Twenty20 against Australia in Guwahati, which India lost by 8 wickets.
Kohli accepted that his team was simply not good enough with the bat in the second T20 and they need to come up with more intent for the third match on Friday.
“I don’t think we were good enough with the bat. The wicket was bit sticking to start with. It was difficult for them as well, but after the dew set in, they got away,” said Kohli after the eight wicket loss against Australia.
“But we speak about when the situations are not in our favour is when we have to put 120 percent on the field. It is the attitude that matters most and it is something the team embraces,” he added.
After restrict India on below par 118, Australia made a mockery of Indian bowlers, as they registered a thumping win with almost five overs to spare.
