Team India's performance in T20 World Cup 2021 has been very disappointing. The Indian team has lost two matches so far and it is very difficult to reach the semi-finals. Now Virat Brigade is going to face Afghanistan in its next match on Wednesday.
After the poor performance against Pakistan and New Zealand, some people are raising questions about the Indian Premier League (IPL). The hashtag BanIPL was also very trending on social media. Now India's legendary cricketer Gautam Gambhir has come in support of IPL. Gambhir believes that IPL gives players match practice.
Gautam Gambhir told Star Sports, 'You cannot blame the IPL. If anything goes wrong in Indian cricket, then everyone starts pointing fingers towards IPL, it is wrong. Sometimes you have to admit that 2-3 teams are playing better cricket than you. The sooner you accept it, the better it will be for you.
Gambhir further said, 'We were not that brave in the last game against New Zealand. We were quite nervous before the game. What does this have to do with IPL? This happened in the semi-finals of the 2019 World Cup as well. At that time also we came to the World Cup by playing the Indian Premier League. IPL is important because players need enough match practice. You can't go to the World Cup with 2-3 matches practiced.
Regarding the match against Afghanistan, this former opener said, 'Afghanistan is not a weak team. They have a better bowling attack than Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. In this match, instead of thinking about the net run rate, the Indian team should try to win first. Once you are in the game, play according to the situation
