India have dropped a few chances in the slip region and in the infield but Ishant Sharma refused to delve too much into them, saying they have coaches to address these problems. Several catches have already gone down in the slip region in both Tests but Ishant doesn’t want to blame the fielders. We don’t have to react on all these things because it is part and parcel of the game. India looked flat when Mohammed Shami opened the bowling in Centurion and only when Ishant took over did India’s pace bowling become more penetrative. Don’t give away too many runs and that is what I was thinking,” he said.
