Team India suffered a disappointing outing in the 2022 Asia Cup where their side bowed out at the Super 4 stage. The Rohit Sharma-led Indian team faced back-to-back defeats to Pakistan and Sri Lanka in the second round and questions were raised about India’s consistent experiments with the playing XI during this time . Captain Rohit even said after the loss against Sri Lanka that the side was still trying to “find answers” to the team mix – a comment that did not go down well with a number of former cricketers, including Dilip Vengsarkar and Sunil. Gavaskar.
Noted former India star Ajay Jadeja also spoke in detail about the side’s “chops and changes” in recent times, saying it was important to have some stability. Jadeja also said that both the captain and the coach need to be on the same page when it comes to public appearances. You have to continue the process. If you keep chopping and changing after every result, there will be confusion, which is quite an old thing in Indian cricket. This can be avoided. I know there will be coordination between the captain and the coach, but it is important to have it in front of the press as well,” Jadeja said on Cricbuzz.
It’s not like we don’t captain or hold press conferences. Sometimes you have to say certain things in a press conference because they might be important. But your team knows exactly why it was said. Your internal conversations with the team should be strong and there should be no need to justify these things to the press.”
Jadeja further said that the statement regarding trying different combinations could have a negative impact on the budding cricketers in the side and insisted that such comments should be made and discussed within the team.
Wins and losses are part of the game, but there should be no confusion about team combinations. There should be no statements about “trying things out” and other such remarks. You have to understand that these are players and they have families. When they read them… things like that come up at some point. Both the captains and the coach should be consistent with their statements in front of the media. You can debate all you want inside,” said the former India star.
