Hope: West Indies need to 'do more rights than wrongs' to compete
"We were a little bit chaotic in the backend [of the batting innings]," Shai Hope says of West Indies' below-par effort with the bat
Dinesh Karthik has expressed concerns about the growing number of one-sided cricket matches involving India, particularly against West Indies. The most recent example occurred in the first T20I in Lucknow, where India chased down 171 with 32 balls to spare, taking a 1-0 lead in the series. Karthik believes the pitches are too flat for bowlers, making it easy for batters to score high totals quickly.
He questions whether these matches have become too meaningless due to the lack of competition. Karthik's worries extend to the one-sided Test series, where India has won 10 consecutive T20Is. He feels that pitches should offer more for spinners and seamers to make the games more competitive.
