England cricket team defeated India by 26 runs in the third T20 International match. In this match played in Rajkot, England batted first and scored 171 runs for the loss of 9 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs. In response, the Indian team could score 146 runs for the loss of 9 wickets in 20 overs.
For India, spinner Varun Chakraborty won everyone's heart by taking 5 wickets, but India's batting unit failed. After the defeat in the match, former Indian cricketer Parthiv Patel targeted Hardik Pandya. He also raised questions on the decision of coach Gautam Gambhir.
Parthiv Patel criticized Hardik Pandya fiercely.
Actually, the batsmen of the Indian team had a very disappointing performance in the third T20I match played in Rajkot against England (India vs England 3rd T20I). From the 9th over to the 16th over, the batsmen of the Indian team could score only 40 runs.
Hardik Pandya was seen wasting a lot of balls on the field, due to which the pressure of the team as well as the net run rate increased. Hardik scored 40 runs in 35 balls with the help of 1 four and 2 sixes. In such a situation, unhappy with his innings, Parthiv Patel criticized him on Star Sports.
Parthiv said,
"In T20 International, no one can take 20 to 25 balls to get set. I understand that you need time to get set, but you should rotate your strike. Hardik may have scored 40 runs in 35 balls, but he played a lot of dot balls at the beginning of the innings."
Kevin Pietersen unhappy with this decision of coach Gautam Gambhir
Former England captain Kevin Pietersen seemed unhappy with India's batting order. He questioned the decision of coach Gautam Gambhir. He said that Gambhir should have sent Dhruv Jurel to bat higher instead of number 8. Kevin said,
"India did not make the batting order right. Dhruv Jurel is an experienced batsman. It was not right to keep him in the lower order for a left and right combination. I am a firm believer that your best batsmen should bat higher."
