Ireland shock forces reflection after rare whitewash
Dushat’s remarks came after India suffered a crushing series defeat at the hands of Ireland, where the visitors failed to chase down 155 despite restricting the hosts to 154/8.“It’s a bit unbelievable. We just won the World Cup,” he admitted. “We’ve fallen behind and been beaten by a team that did the basics well.”The assistant coach admitted that India struggled to adapt to the conditions, particularly the wind and ground movement, while praising Ireland for executing their plan more effectively.“Ireland’s fundamentals were very good and we couldn’t compete with that. We were probably too used to the tempo style where you can hit sixes more freely. We have to be smarter in situations like this,” he said.
Batting issues, but philosophy unchanged
Although the collapse of the powerplay proved decisive in both games, Ten Douchat resisted calls for a more cautious approach from the top brass.“I would certainly say it very carefully, let’s be very careful at the beginning, that’s not the way we want to play,” he said. “We want to take better options and give ourselves a better chance of dominating the power struggle.”India will now turn their attention to the tour of England starting from July 1, where they will play five T20Is and three ODIs, with the selection debate surrounding Sooryavanshi expected to intensify further after the setback in Ireland.
