Batting let the team down: Dravid
22.33 IST 07th Nov 2005
By Agencies
Indian skipper Rahul Dravid on Sunday said it was the batting, which had let the team down and cost it the fifth one-day international against Sri Lanka.
"We lost few quick wickets at a crucial stage and fell short by 25-30 runs in good batting conditions and that was the difference," said the skipper after India suffered their first defeat in the tournament, going down by five wickets in the fifth one-dayer in Ahmedabad.
However, he was all praise for his young bowling attack for "putting up a good effort in tiring conditions".
"The boys put in a good effort. Our bowling attack was young and I thought that the way they fought was brilliant.
"We are giving chance to these young boys and they are putting their hands up and delivering. This helps the team and it is good sign for the team. We have played good cricket and we will keep developing in the next two games also," he said.
