Lost one wicket in the first ten overs; lost NINE wickets in the last ten overs - That's how you do it!![]()
That partnership on the second wicket is actually a major reason behind the loss. They carried on well in the power play, but, failed to maintain a decent rate after that.
Both the batsmen looked incapable of hitting fours or sixes without slogging and they couldn't slog all that much after the power-plays. You can't allow the required run rate to go back up to 9 or 10 after it has been brought down to 7s.
Naive batting did them in.
