Paul: Indian wicketkeeper – batsman Dinesh Karthik has suggested changes to the Indian squad for the second match of the ODI series (SA vs IND) against South Africa. Karthik has suggested changes to the Indian pace attack.
Captain KL Rahul should be asked why Venkatesh Iyer, who came into the team as a batting all-rounder in the first ODI, did not bowl. Because Venkatesh Iyer was included in the team as a batting all-rounder. Everyone must have been surprised that Iyer did not bowl. Anyway, in the coming matches, Iyer can be expected to throw the ball. Because hiring someone on a team in the name of a talent is tantamount to denying him or her the team if he or she is not being used to it.
Look at South Africa’s bowling strategy. They used NGD effectively in the middle overs. They used Markrat effectively against Dhawan and Marco Johnson against KL Rahul. Karthik said Johnson should have been attacked and put under pressure from the first ball as England have been playing.
The second match of the India-South Africa ODI series will be played tomorrow. India, who lost the first match by 31 runs, are trailing 1-0 in the series. If they lose tomorrow’s match, India will lose the ODI series after the Test series.
