Indian weakness exposed !




That Indian batsmen still buckle under short pitched stuff was proved again as Russell and Roach put them under a baptism of fire !

Y Pathan, Badrinath and Raina still found it difficult to negotiate with short pitched deliveries. Except for the young Kohli and Sharma, none of the other batsmen could get on top of the WI pacers in the last two ODIs. After Roach and Russell had struck, Pollard and Sammy took advantage of the Indian batsmen !

Of course, WI will have to face professionals like Dravid, Sehwag and Dhoni in Test matches, but it is clear that their bowlers will resort to the short pitched stuff.

Dhawan and Patel also found it difficult to face fast short pitched balls. The WIes had already exposed the chinks in the Indian armour !

Even though India had won both ODI and T20 series, certain weaknesses were exposed. It is good that these weaknesses are known and it is time the Indian batsmen rectified these errors before taking the Carribeans in their den in Tests !

India scored 251 yesterday, thanks to a 93 from Kohli and 57 from Rohit Sharma. Sarwan and Darren Bravo smashed great half centuries and WI scored 255/3, winning by seven wickets.
