Team India: The Indian team is currently in Sri Lanka and both the teams are facing each other in the ODI series. Team India has performed disappointingly in this series so far and some players have been responsible for this.

In the two matches played in the series, apart from captain Rohit Sharma, no other batsman has been able to perform well. The first match was tied, while in the second match, India had to face defeat by 32 runs. Two players are most responsible for this defeat of Team India.

Team India suffered a shameful defeat in the second match

Let us tell you that the second ODI match between India and Sri Lanka was played in Colombo on Sunday. In this match, the Indian team had scored 97 runs at one point and they had not lost any wicket. That too in a match when the team was chasing a target of 241 runs.

After captain Rohit got out, no other player could perform well and as a result, Team India lost the match by 32 runs. Two Indian players are most responsible for this defeat because it is because of them that the team had to face defeat.

Disappointing performance from KL Rahul

Wicketkeeper batsman KL Rahul has been performing consistently well for Team India in this format for some time now. However, he has been a complete flop on this tour. Even in the first match, Rahul got out after getting set and could not lead Team India to victory.

In the second match, India needed him but he got clean bowled on two balls without even opening his account. In such a situation, now he does not bowl and is not doing a good job in wicketkeeping as well and is becoming a burden for the team.

Shreyas Iyer also completely flopped

After a dispute with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Shreyas Iyer returned to Team India but he could not perform well. Iyer scored 23 runs in 23 balls in the first match, while he was out after scoring 7 runs in the second match.

Shreyas is considered to be a great spin player but here he was seen struggling against spinners. Iyer does not bowl and if he does not score runs, he will become a burden on the team.
