WI v IND: Needed One Batter To Stay Till The End, Says Arshdeep Singh On Four-Run Loss In First T20I
India’s left-arm fast-bowler Arshdeep Singh admitted that the side needed someone to bat till the very end, something which would have saved the visitors from losing the T20I series opener to West Indies at the Brian Lara Cricket Stadium. Chasing a target of 150, India was restricted to 145 for nine, after needing 37 off 29 runs at one point. Despite the equation coming down to ten runs off the last over, India couldn’t get the required runs to be now 0-1 behind in the five-game series. India will now play the second T20I against West Indies at the Providence Stadium in Guyana on Sunday.
“We will review the match (on where we could have done better). Like, what we could have done better in the first innings. Where we could have kept things tight with the ball and as a batting unit in the second innings where did we miss the finishing part? I guess we needed one batter to stay till the end because, in their last two overs, five fielders were inside the 30-yard circle,” said Arshdeep in the post-match press conference.
