How did he react? Any video clips?

From what I remember, he got up from his seat with a scowl and walked from inside the cabin towards the balcony area. Maybe he wanted to shout out some gaali but realized he is on camera and restrained himself.

No it was not right at all. If the  way of thinking is to play "a high risk shot to release pressure", any captain  would love such opponents  :).   it was far from a  back to the wall situation and not even close.

 

You don't have to do anything silly against a not so great opponent... their idea was precisely that...doing something silly 

 

Attacking does not mean throwing the kitchen sink or high risk shot...it can also mean boundaries along the ground or a safe placement for a four..Yuvraj himself combined the two approaches even though he was a big six hitter....As i said they could have seen us safely to 130 or better even at less than 4 an over cutting out any high risk shot

 

When the score was below 130, high risk shots aka gambling were a no no..so the idea itself was a problem..

 

See here..... Bevan taking australia from 6/82 to 245 against NZ...

Australian innings does not have one six and Bevan had 7 fours at best..At that time NZ had Bond who was dangerous at all  times

 

Players have to watch and observe  this kind of matches..

 

There are safer and higher percentage ways.....considering the opposition is not that great and the target was not too expensive

 

When Jadeja came , he had to do or die,.,,,so his attempts were justified.Not pant's or Pandya's..I would have been happy if they didn't hit one six but showed the intellect to see the match through

 

They lacked awareness of how to take full advantage of an inferior opponent
 

 

 

people like pandya and pant are not matured enough and cannot hold back. They still tried playing slowly. They can at the most score 30;s and 40's currently and nothing more which they scored. The asking rate was climbing very fast. They should have hit the ball straight like jadeja did. the idea was right but execution not.

Pant and Pandya should have been coming after Dhoni. When you tuk tuk master in team then why sent players who usually get rapid 30-40 and get out

 I am stating the requirements of the situation... did i expect pant and pandya to succeed? more on hope and less on reason. As far as reason is concerned, they precisely did what i expected them to do.

No it wasn't steep enough to merit any such high risk shots..not even close..

 

To be successful and mature, they have to manage asking rate with more high percentage methods,,,they have to handle problems and crisis better,

 

when they do these things better, they will be  mature and successful.

 

Yesterday's shots were dumb in idea and execution and will only result in more failures if they do not unlearn their immature way of thinking...How one handles a problem or crisis COUNTS  A LOT in life...a climbing asking rate is hardly one of life's toughest crisis

It was a move to protect Dhoni. After 5 wickets, it's safe narrative nobody stayed hence he needed to play out overs. It's just sheer luck that Jadeja produced a blinder out of nowhere.

There were 13 successive dot balls earlier.  Which created pressure on pant.  Even an experienced batsmen under those circumstances would hv gone for a similar shot.  Nothing wrong with pant's approach.  Kohli should rather spend more time and analyse his own performance(which has been abysmal) in ICC knockouts. 

Yup. Look at the Australia match today. Carey got out the same way.
