‘Overconfidence Took A Hit, And That's A Good Thing’: Maninder On India's Identity Crisis In T20Is
Indian T20I: On paper, four months can pass quickly in the blink of an eye in international cricket, but for the Indian T20I side set to begin their three-game series against Zimbabwe at the Harare Sports Club on Thursday, it has felt long enough to trigger a quiet crisis of identity.
Fresh off a T20 World Cup triumph earlier in the year, India find themselves nursing the wounds of consecutive series defeats in Ireland and England under new skipper Shreyas Iyer. Former India spinner Maninder Singh believes the recent slide, while jarring, might be the reality check the Indian team needed to shake off the overconfidence, which in turn can be a good thing in the long run.
“Basically, I think conditions also (played a part in the defeats). It’s because we won the World Cup in India and played the IPL in India. So, our boys are used to playing in conditions like that, and they are used to playing in such conditions. Like, if you talk about (playing in) India, the ball comes on the bat very well.
