2nd ODI: There Is Going To Be A Talk About How We Bat In Middle Overs, Says Rohit Sharma
It was also the first time that the first six wickets in an ODI innings fell to a spinner, as India were bowled out for 208 in a chase of 241. Sunday's defeat ends India's run of 11 consecutive bilateral series (2+ matches) wins in ODIs against Sri Lanka. The last time India failed to win a bilateral series against Sri Lanka was in Dec 1997. “We do understand the nature of this surface and the nature of how the game is going to go as well. It gets really, really tough in the middle overs. So you have to try and capitalize in the powerplay and get as many runs as possible.”
“That's what both openers were trying to do. But we were just not good enough today. We have played really good cricket in the past but I don't want to look too much into how we played. But certainly, there is going to be a talk about how we bat in the middle overs," said Rohit after the match ended.
