\u201cVirat Kohli made the most of our lacklustre bowling,\u201d says West Indies all-rounder Darren Sammy after his team suffered a humiliating defeat of 102 runs against India on Friday. He wants his teammates to focus more on the bowling which wasn\u2019t having enough firepower to tilt the scale in favour of home team. Kohli was given the man-of-the-match award for his 14th hundred which came in just 81 balls to see India to post a mammoth total of 7\/311 in their 50 overs.<\/p>\n

Slamming his bowlers for a very ordinary bowling, Sammy was quoted by The Hindu<\/strong> saying, “We have to give credit to Kohli and the Indians for the way they played. We did not bowl as well as we know we can. That is one area where we went wrong today. India played really well. They knew they had to come hard at us, to get a win and stay in the tournament, and they did just that.”\n<\/p>\n

“The way Kohli played just goes to show what can happens when a set batsman stays in to the end of the innings,” Sammy added.<\/p>\n

Stressing on the importance of top-order firing like they did in the first couple of matches, he said “We had two very good innings in Jamaica when Chris (Gayle) got a hundred against Sri Lanka and (Johnson) Charles got 90-odd against India to win those two matches for us, but we did not get any real big partnerships going today.”<\/p>\n

Sammy is quite confident of staying at top of the table to make sure that they go into the finals of the tournament and is expecting a strong comeback from his teammates when Windies will be playing Sri Lanka on Sunday.<\/p>\n

“We are still very much in the tournament. Today we lost but there is need to panic,” Sammy said. We are still at the top of the points table and we have all to play for when we face Sri Lanka on Sunday. We still believe we can win this tournament. We will regroup and look to bounce back when we meet Sri Lanka on Sunday and look to move into the final,” he concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
