In Chappell’s view, India’s investment in grassroots cricket has helped them outperform the rest of the world. And because of the coronavirus, when every country, every board is shaking financially, this difference will be even more noticeable. That is why Chappell’s appeal to everyone is: ‘I tell you guys that you are in awe of the way India has handled all the challenges that you have faced in this series, the way you have won the match with courage to keep your nerves under control, get used to it. It makes no sense to think if India has become the best team in the world, since they have been able to form the five best teams in world cricket.
Chappell also spoke about some of Australia’s mistakes in the recently concluded series. According to him, Australia has made a mistake by playing with the same bowlers in all four events. The bowlers, especially Mitchell Starc, were very tired. However, Chappell blamed the batters for the loss. The batsmen couldn’t afford the bowlers to fight. Chappell also called on hitters like David Warner and Steve Smith to find alternatives from now on. And Steve Smith won’t last forever. So we have to start the process of finding your alternatives now. That must be done soon.
However, Chappell did not agree to blame Australian captain Tim Payne, who was criticized in the series. In his opinion, “The team is one of five cricketers claiming a direct place on the Australian team at this time. He didn’t have a good time behind the stumps in this series, but he did hit an average of more than 40 runs with the bat.
