IND vs BAN: "India Can't Play Bazball Style Of Cricket Because..."- Dinesh Karthik

Indian Cricket Team had won the toss and elected to bat first. The pitch was not an easy one where the bowlers there was an uneven bounce. Skipper KL Rahul was quite defensive in his approach as he allowed the bowlers to settle down. The batter eventually was bowled where he dragged one onto the stumps as he scored 22 runs in 54 balls where he struck 3 fours.

Bangladesh’s bowlers were quite disciplined in their approach as they made Indian batters work hard for every run. Taijul Islam was the pick of the bowlers as he took 3 key scalps of Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli & Cheteshwar Pujara.

Dinesh Karthik on India’s batting approach

Dinesh Karthik was seen having an interaction with Cricbuzz  and was asked about India’s approach. “For me, as I said, it is very evident that these are kind of wickets that sometimes end up not producing a result. As the Test match carries on, the wear and tear makes it slow. If the quality of the batsmanship is not great, you will end up seeing batsmen make mistakes. If your temperament is strong, you won’t need a great technique to stay at the wicket.” said Dinesh Karthik.

“For starters, India cannot play the Bazball kind of cricket because right now, it’s not a part of our DNA to do something like that. For KL Rahul to come out and say that they will play aggressive cricket basically means that they want to make a match out of it and get a result, knowing that the WTC final is around the corner and these two games become critical.” he stated.

“They want to press the accelerator and push the scoring rate. They couldn’t do it today because the wicket is slow, and you have to bring a different tempo altogether and that will require a few players who bat that way.” he added.

Great Chance for Bangladesh

The Bangladeshi Tigers would be keen to wrap up the innings on Day 2 as India doesn’t have batters present after Ashwin. Skipper Shakib would be thinking of introducing spin from both sides as the pitch has started to deteriorate.

India on the other side would be banking on Shreyas Iyer as the batter so far has looked ominous. Shreyas will have to make sure that India plays out first half an hour as that would be a deciding phase of the Test Match. It would be interesting to see whether Ashwin goes berserk against spinners.
