You will not win games if you drop catches: WI coach Phil Simmons

By Saurabh Sharma December 10, 2019 • 17:32 PM View: 1738

Mumbai, Dec 10: West Indies coach Phil Simmons said on Tuesday that dropping catches could be a major reason behind the defeat of any team and and if any player drops a catch, it's his fault and he shouldn't cite any excuse for it.

In the ongoing T20I series between India and the West Indies, many catches have been dropped by the players from both the sides and Simmons felt that players should keep working hard to avoid fielding lapses.
