Coach Rahul Dravid: The Indian team has once again missed out on winning the final match of the World Test Championship. 2 years ago also Team India had to face defeat by 8 wickets at the hands of New Zealand, while this year the Kangaroo team defeated India by a big margin of 209 runs and won the title. After India’s defeat in the final, Team India’s coach Rahul Dravid looked very disappointed and at the same time, he blamed these two players for India’s defeat.
Coach Rahul Dravid considered him guilty of defeat
After the match, Indian team coach Rahul Dravid has given a big statement saying that we had taken this decision after looking at the weather and the frozen grass on the pitch. We thought it would be easy to bat later. Most of the teams in England have been taking similar decisions in the recent past. We thought it was a good decision because Australia had lost three wickets for 70 runs, but in the next two sessions, we gave away too many runs.
Had we been able to get him out even for 300 runs, we would have stayed in the match. We thought that whatever the goal, we would not give up fighting, although it required extraordinary performance. Our bowlers were disappointed because 469 should not have been scored on this pitch. After this, the batsmen played bad shots which cost them dearly.
These players will be called future legends
When Rahul Dravid was asked about not winning the ICC title in the last 10 years, he replied that we are getting closer. We are reaching the semi-finals and finals, but we haven’t done our best in the last five days. We will introspect. And we have the top 5 players with experience who have set high standards. And these players will be called legends in the future. They won two series in Australia and won Tests in England, we are doing whatever we can.
