Who is Responsible for the Loss Against Ireland?
Poor opening partnerships, middle-order collapses under pressure, lack of death bowlers in Bumrah’s absence, weak specialist spinners, and constant experimentation with the playing XI are the main concerns.
The team’s inability to handle even slight movement or slower pitches was clearly visible. Ireland held the mirror to India’s weaknesses. If the team wants to stay at the top, it needs to fix these structural issues instead of relying on individual stars.
