TIL Desk Sports/ Following his side’s four-wicket loss to Australia in the first T20I in Mohali, India all-rounder Hardik Pandya said that the team was not able to execute its plans and deliveries. Indian bowlers once again came a cropper as they failed to defend the 209-run target in the first T20I against Australia here at the PCA Stadium in Mohali. India is now trailing 0-1 in the three-match T20I series.
“There was no dew, you just need to give them some credit for playing some good cricket. They played some good shots. We were not able to execute our plans and deliveries,” said Pandya in a post-match press conference.
On whether Harshal Patel’s expensive 18th over was a turning point of the match, Pandya said that nothing can be pinpointed. “It is a game. Even they Australia conceded 24-25 runs in an over. It is a bilateral series. We will get try to get better,” he added.
