WI vs IND | Twitter bashes clueless India's lack of planning days before World Cup
When a team prepares for a marquee event, they are exp🎃ected to be ready with their tactics and strategies well in advance. However, India have turned out to be an exception as their bizarre move to send Axar Patel at No. 4 with the O✅DI World Cup looming drew a lot of flak on social media.
After taking a 1-0 lead in the series with a convincing win in the first ODI, India were down to 105/3 by the end of 22 overs. The visitors have been expe🐻rimenting a lot in the series and their tendency to try out new things was evident in the second fixture as well. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were rested for the game while Hardik Pandya took over the captaincy duties. The move surprised fans a bit but they were simply awed when they saw Axar Patel coming in to bat at No. 4.
India lost their second wicket at a score of 95 and with both openers back in the hut,📖 Suryakumar Yadav or Hardik Pandya was expected to walk in. However, Axar Patel was promoted up the order which raised many eyebrows. To make things worse, the all-rounder departed back to the pavilion after scoring just one run, thus triggering fans ꩲon social media to express their displeasure with India’s lack of planning despite the World Cup scheduled to start in a few days.
Experiment fails!

No sense
Watching doesn't make any sense, they are sending axar at 4. What the hell is this.

I will remember this whole West Indies tour as the M♓ost boring tour of ICT.
It was an experiment
One thing is called experiment. And One is called brainless experiments. Rohit, Rahul and Agarkar are doing brainless experiments. When u have Hardik, Sky then why there is need of Axar to bat at No.4 as u have left handed opener

Shubman Gill
Rohit Virat
Unbelievable
I am sorry but th🌱is batting order is utter nonsense. If SKY is to play he will in all likelihood be the no.4 and hence should have come in at 3 or 4. There is no chance of Axar playing ahead of jaddu so trying him at no.4 does not ma🐭ke sense.
