Sunil Gavaskar talks about preparation of Team India for T20 World Cup
Earlier on Star Sports, Gavaskar had talked about the preparation of Indian team and whether they can manage to win the game.
“If you have a long batting line-up, that’s the way you should be playing. Yes, we want to see him bat longer, we want to see him bat for 10-12 overs because then you are pretty certain. Because in those 10-12 overs, India is 120-odd with the way he bats. But because he is getting India to flying starts and because he has got 5,6,7 who can take the game away. Today look at the way Hardik Pandya came in towards the end. With that kind of batting order, you can take chances,” Sunil Gavaskar said.
“Clearly, getting the captain of a team is always a big plus for the opposition. It’s like getting the head of the snake is what they say. That’s why if you are an opening batsman, bowlers will target you – the captain. Get you to demoralise the side. But this side has so many class players.”
