Champions Trophy: India Is Batting So Well That Toss Won't Matter, Says Lalchand Rajput
“We are chasing well. I think in the final, it's definitely the team that wins the toss. I presume they will bat first because chasing any total in a final will be a little bit of a concern. But now the Indian team is batting so well that I don't think toss matters a lot,” said Rajput in an exclusive conversation with IANS from Dubai.
Rajput, currently UAE’s head coach, feels New Zealand are ahead of India as far as fielding is concerned. “Fielding is one of the things which both the teams have to really work on. But here, I would give the edge to New Zealand fielding because they are top class, especially Glenn Phillips and even Williamson, the catch he took in the last game.”
