India’s vice-captain Rohit Sharma admitted that some of the “decision-making” during the first two games of the ongoing T20 World Cup against Pakistan and New Zealand as a result of exhaustion that has set in after being on the road for a long time.<\/p>\n
He said at the post-match conference, “The approach (against Afghanistan) was different. I wish it was in the first two games as well but it didn’t happen. But that can happen when you are on the road for a long time. Decision-making sometimes can be a problem and that’s exactly what happened in the first two games,” Rohit said at the post-match press conference. He went on to say how decision-making can be affected if the mind is not fresh as people are expected to make correct decisions whenever they are on the field. “The amount of cricket that is being played and amount of cricket we are playing, every time you step onto the field, you have to make the right decision,”<\/p>\n
“You need to ensure that you are fresh in terms of the mental aspect. Maybe that’s the reason why we didn’t make some good decisions. When you play a lot of cricket, these kinds of things keep happening. You need to get away from the game and freshen up your mind. “But when you play the World Cup, your full focus should be on the World Cup. You should know what you need to do and what you don’t.”<\/p>\n
Rohit pointed out succinctly in the face of heavy criticism over the recent poor playing that two bad games can’t make a team poor one and said,<\/p>\n
\u201cIt didn\u2019t happen in two games but that doesn\u2019t mean that we have become bad players overnight. If you have two bad games, it doesn\u2019t mean that all players are bad, those who are running the team are bad, you reflect and you come back and that\u2019s what we did in this game,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn these situations, you have to stay fearless and not think about what is happening elsewhere. We are a very good team but just that we were not great on that particular day against Pakistan and also against New Zealand. The game that we played sums it up that this is what we get when we play fearlessly,\u201d<\/p>\n
