Srinagar: Former India great Zaheer Khan has said that Team India skipper Rohit Sharma made mistakes that allowed South Africa to come back in the game and were reasons India lost.
“You got the game to that level from where you got to just finish it. So, I am disappointed with that. Rest of the things (are) fine. You know what you did. Leading up to that didn’t matter, you made the game out of it. And from there, you let South Africa come in the play and they went on to win the match. That is something that you need to look into. It is about confidence in certain bowlers,” Zaheer Khan said on Cricbuzz.
“It felt like that to a certain degree that Rohit was maybe not able to use his resources or he’s kind of stuck with using a particular bowler in a particular position. Arshdeep could have bowled three overs at the top, but he (Rohit) felt that who is going to take care of the backend. There are certain factors which are still not comfortable,” he added.
So far, India have played three matches, winning two and losing one.
