Why Gavaskar is unhappy with India's batting approach

Sunil Gavaskar expressed dissatisfaction with the Indian batting lineup following their 24-run defeat to the West Indies in the fourth T20 International. Despite a rapid half-century from Sanju Samson, the team failed to chase down a target of 247, with Gavaskar specifically noting the lack of contribution from Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, and Shreyas Iyer.

While the former captain defended the inexperienced bowling attack, he emphasized that the batters must demonstrate greater accountability to succeed. Meanwhile, Cheteshwar Pujara lauded West Indies captain Shai Hope for his disciplined century, noting his ability to score effectively without resorting to reckless hitting.

The series is now tied, with the final match scheduled for Bengaluru.
