For India, the T20 World Cup is all but over. From a changed opening combination to poor shot selection, India were prisoners of confusion in the must-win game against New Zealand. Consider the case of sending World T20 debutant Ishan Kishan to open and demoting old hand Rohit Sharma in this pressure game. And yet, a country that boasts the game’s most high-profile T20 league fizzled at the World Cup. In the end, after two matches at the T20 World Cup, India are yet to open their account and their net run-rate is minus 1.60.
