TIL Desk Sports/ Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar lashed out at the Indian team management saying there should have been more practice matches before the start of the Test series in England.
India lost the first match of the five-match Test series by 31 runs two days ago, with all of their batsmen failing to score runs except skipper Virat Kohli.
Gavaskar raised objections to the team management’s decision to reduce the proposed four-day match against Essex to three days and playing just one practice game in the 14-day gap between the third One Day International (ODI) on July 17 and the first Test.
“See Virat Kohli is such an exceptional talent, he can take 15 days off and then score a hundred the next day. If he takes time off, no quarrel at all. But he has to understand, and the team management have to understand, that others need practice,” Gavaskar told.
