Inexperience led to mistakes on field and decision making, admits Rohit
Poor fielding and lack of judgement while going for the Decision Review System (DRS) calls cost India the first T20 International against Bangladesh, stand-in skipper Rohit Sharma said here on Sunday.
Mushfiqur Rahim guided Bangladesh to their first ever T20 victory against India with an unbeaten 60 where a butter-fingered Krunal Pandya and an indecisive Rishabh Pant let the team down despite a par-score on a tricky Feroz Shah Kotla surface.
"It was a defendable score, and we made mistakes on the field. The guys are a bit inexperienced, and they can learn from that, perhaps not make them the next time. The reviews (DRS) were a mistake from our side," Rohit admitted during post-match presentation ceremony.
However Rohit gave credit to Bangladesh for winning it in a convincing manner.
"Not to take credit away from Bangladesh. They put us under pressure right from the start when we were batting."
Rohit then explained the DRS calls -- (one off Yuzvendra Chahal's bowling), which he didn't .
