Former pacer Venkatesh Prasad expressed his disappointment over the Team India's performance in the second T20I against the West Indies. He termed the team's effort "very ordinary" while adding that there is a need for a higher level of intensity and hunger to win from the team. India is trailing 0-2 in the five-match T20I series against the West Indies, after the two-wicket loss in Guyana on Sunday. Prasad has been outspoken about India's failure to play the brand of cricket required in the white-ball formats. On Monday, he reiterated his point and emphasized how lackluster and flat the players appeared on the field.
"Very very ordinary. No point in brushing it aside. After the 2007 T20 World Cup, IPL started and we haven’t won a T20 World Cup in 7 attempts since, making only 1 final. The intensity and hunger to win needs to be far more," Prasad tweeted.
The West Indies seemed to be comfortably on their way to victory on Sunday, requiring 27 runs from 36 balls when a sudden collapse occurred, resulting in the loss of four wickets in just six runs.
