On lower-order lack of batting time, former Indian captain Anjum Chopra says, England had that challenge as well. But it's not that they didn't take up the challenge. 141 on the board for what England scored against West Indies in the last league game. Despite their top three really not firing, which they have been doing, 141 was not a bad target on a pitch where they did not play a single game. But at least that effort was there. They were not looking like, helter skelter, so what now, what will happen... If everybody gets the chance to play in the 20 overs, then we'll also start questioning what our batters are trying to do and how they are scoring and not scoring. There will always be a questions from our side, but it's about knowing exactly what your role is.

00:00England had that challenge as well. But it's not that they didn't take up the challenge.
00:06141 on the board for what England scored against West Indies in the last league game, despite their top three really not firing, which they have been doing.
00:17141 was not a bad target on a pitch where they have not played a single game. But at least that effort was there.
00:23They were not looking like helter-skelter as to what will happen.
00:26So, it's not about everybody cannot get to play. If everybody gets a chance to play in the 20 overs, then we will also start questioning what our batters are trying to do and how they are scoring and not scoring.
00:36And you know, there will always be a question from our side. It's about knowing exactly what your role is.
00:42T20 game will always keep asking and throwing challenges at you as a player, as a batter, as a bowler.
00:47You have to just be prepared. Whichever team or individual is more better prepared, they will always come out trumps on top.
00:53At least that effort of getting better from where you were in the last event or the previous event, that effort needs to showcase.
01:02It's not about, as I said, it's not about always winning or losing. It's about, have you as an individual become better at your skill?
01:12Have you been able to counter the situation that you were faced in the last time you were in a similar scenario?
01:18Are you better placed to handle that situation? Yes or no? If you are, very good. If you are not, then that is what is raising an alarm for me rather than many other things.
