Rohit Sharma Reaction: The second match of the three-match ODI series being played between India and Sri Lanka was played on Sunday (5 August). In this match played at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, Team India had to face a crushing defeat by 32 runs. After this defeat, Team India captain Rohit Sharma looked very disappointed. He said that you have to play cricket continuously and today we failed to do so. Apart from this, the Indian captain also said that there is a little disappointment but such things happen.
Speaking after the match, Rohit Sharma said, “When you lose a match, everything hurts. It is not about those 10 overs. You have to play consistent cricket and today we failed to do that. A little disappointed but such things happen. You have to adapt to what is in front of you. With left-right we thought it would be easy to rotate the strike. Credit goes to Jeffrey, he took 6 wickets.”
Talking further about his innings, the Indian captain said, “The reason for me scoring 65 runs is my way of batting. When I bat like this, I have to take a lot of risk. If you don’t cross your line, you always get disappointed. I don’t want to compromise on the intent. We understand the nature of this pitch. It becomes very difficult in the middle overs. You have to try to achieve as much as possible in the powerplay. We were not good enough. We don’t want to look too much at how we played. But there will be a discussion about our batting in the middle overs.”
This is how Team India lost
In the match, Sri Lanka batted first and scored 240/9 runs in 50 overs. After the first innings, it seemed that Team India would easily chase this target and win the match, but this did not happen. Team India, which came to chase the target, lost its first wicket in 13.3 overs at a score of 97 runs. After this score, the victory of the Indian team seemed almost certain, but then suddenly Team India’s wickets fell and the team was all out for 208 runs in 42.2 overs.
