India vs West Indies 2011 Cricket Series:Raina Criticized
India won the series, but lost the plot. India vs West Indies ODI 2011 series has been won by India 3-2. Nonetheless criticism is mounting against stand in captain Suresh Raina for his poor leadership qualitiesNew Delhi: We had predicted more than a week ago that the India vs West Indies series will be as good as Pakistan vs West Indies series played merely a couple of weeks ago. Like Suresh Raina led Indian cricket team, Pakistan too had won the first three matches, winning the series.
But then after a great start the team went downhill. We know that there were internal differences between coach and Pakistani cricket team and so their loss can be reasoned.
But we have no explanation as to why the Indian team that was looking great till the third one day international match suddenly lost the touch and lost two matches in a row and that too in a very humiliating fashion.
Losing fourth match with a margin of 140 plus runs and then the fifth and the last match by seven wickets is something that may not leave a great impression of the team and the captaining qualities of the stand in captain Suresh Raina.
He is being also blamed for the loss as he did not recall Munaf Patel who has been performing consistently with the ball back in the team after resting him for the fourth one day international.
