India Faces Criticism Over Bowling and Batting After Fourth T20I Loss to West IndiesPreviousNext

India lost the fourth T20I against West Indies by 24 runs, leveling the five-match series 2-2. Former cricketer Mohammed Kaif criticized India's bowling, saying the current attack is insufficient to win future T20 World Cups. Sunil Gavaskar emphasized the need for Indian batters to take more responsibility while chasing, noting that despite Sanju Samson's fifty, the team failed to capitalize. West Indies captain Shai Hope scored a century, contributing to a total of 247 runs that India could not surpass.
