In the three-match one-day series against new zealand, the indian team lost 0-1. In this series, the indian team was led by Shikhar Dhawan. The 50-over world cup will be held in october next year in India. In preparation for this, the bcci started building the indian team through the new zealand series, but the indian team did not get the expected results. Now we can see the reasons behind the defeat of the indian team in this series. The first ODI was held in Auckland. In this, the indian team lost by accumulating 306 runs. The indian team had a bright chance to win this match. However, it was a big mistake for the indian team to play without adding an additional bowler. The fact that the indian team management did not add an all-rounder like deepak Hooda to the team instead of rishabh pant who was dying was seen as a big minus.
Meanwhile, the second ODI was affected by rain. new zealand would have won even if the match had been played in 50 overs. Because india made a big mistake in the playing eleven. Although dhawan included all-rounder deepak Hooda in the playing eleven, Dhawan's omission of in-form players like sanju samson was seen as a big mistake. Some rain came and saved india in that game. However, india made the same mistake in the third ODI. They replaced sanju samson with rishabh Pant. But he scored just 10 runs off 16 balls in the third ODI. Although rishabh pant is a talented player, he lacks confidence at the moment. bcci should give him time to rest and return to the team. In his place, sanju samson, who is in good form, should be included in the team.
This is the biggest mistake made by bcci in this series. Similarly, the indian team has chosen players who have no experience in fast bowling. There is no point in blaming them. Surely the series today would have given a good experience to Umran Malik and Ardeep Singh. Similarly, Shardul Thakur's absence from the second and third matches due to injury is seen as a disadvantage for the indian team. Similarly, Chahal's performance in the ODI series has been very disappointing. In the first ODI, washington sundar bowled 10 overs and conceded only 42 runs.
But chahal was giving more than 60 runs. The reason for this is that chahal has lost his ability to take wickets and control runs, so the indian team should replace chahal with kuldeep Yadav. Batting has been a big disappointment in the indian team. Suryakumar is number one in t20 cricket. But, he is yet to showcase his talent in the one-day game. If Suriya Kumar Yadav had been in action, india would have scored some extra runs in the first ODI and the third ODI.
