2nd Test: West Indies’ Batters Need To Get That Start And Kick On To Be Fine, Says Skipper Chase
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Ahead of the second Test against India starting at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Friday, the West Indies find themselves under pressure for both on and off-field reasons. In their crushing defeat by an innings and 140 runs in Ahmedabad, the West Indies failed to cross 200 in either innings, which collectively lasted just 89.2 overs.
That led to batting legend Brian Lara publicly questioning the current team’s hunger to represent the Caribbean and expressing pain over the decline of a side he once led with distinction. With funding issues and talent drain to franchise leagues also lurking behind, one is hoping for the side from the Caribbean to put up a fight and conjure up an improbable turnaround in New Delhi.
Skipper Roston Chase, who cut a sad and embarrassing figure after the loss in Ahmedabad, believes the solution lies in getting good starts and kicking it on to be in their batting returns. For a team low on confidence and facing global scrutiny, this simple advice from Chase offers a chance to reset and challenge the formidable Indian team.
