Former India pacer Venkatesh Prasad has torn down on Indian team management after the team lost the fifth T20I against West Indies. In the white-ball series, the Asian side has had a difficult time. In the three-match ODI series, the Men In Blue huffed and puffed their way to a small target. They went on to lose the second ODI. In the end, they won the series 2-1.
Talking about the T20I series, the Hardik Pandya-led side lost the first two games out of five. At this stage, the T20 World Cup 2007 winners looked like losing the series against expectations. However, the team managed to win the next two games and level the series 2-2. In the last game on August 13, the visitors failed to live up to the form of the last two games.
India has been a very ordinary side - Venkatesh Prasad
After India lost the fifth T20I by eight wickets, Prasad pointed out how the former World Champions of ODI and T20I cricket have been doing poorly in white-ball cricket. The Bangalore player added that India lost an ODI series against Bangladesh and just lost a T20I series against the West Indies that failed in T20 World Cup 2022.
"India has been a very very ordinary limited overs side for sometime now. They have been humbled by a West Indies side that failed to qualify for the T20 WC few months back. We had also lost to Ban in the ODI series. Hope they introspect instead of making silly statements," he tweeted.
Prasad further added that the Maroon Brigade failed to even qualify for the upcoming ODI World Cup 2023.
