Ravi Shastri, the head coach of the Indian cricket team, has launched a scathing attack on the team following their defeat to Australia in the first Test match of the series. Shastri was particularly critical of the team’s over-eagerness to try and win the match, which he believes cost them the game.
The Indian team had been in good form leading up to the match, having won the previous series against West Indies. However, they were unable to replicate that form against Australia, losing the first Test match by a margin of eight wickets.
Shastri was particularly critical of the team’s approach to the match, claiming that they were too eager to try and win the game. He believes that this eagerness cost them the match, as they were unable to maintain their composure and focus on the task at hand.
“We were too eager to try and win the match,” Shastri said. “We were trying too hard to get the result we wanted, and in the process, we lost our focus and composure. We were not patient enough and we paid the price for it.”
Shastri also criticised the team’s batting performance, claiming that they were too aggressive and failed to build partnerships. He believes that the team should have been more patient and taken their time to build an innings, rather than trying to score quickly.
