India’s loss on Sunday to Australia has thrown us a welcome lifeline. The defeats to India and Australia were very disappointing, as we should have won both matches. But we didn’t, and we only have ourselves to blame. We now need to win both our remaining matches, but our focus is firmly on India tomorrow.Our batting, especially against Australia, has been poor throughout this tournament. Kumar (Sangakkara) has been brilliant, but the rest of us have been unacceptably inconsistent. You can talk all you want as a team but at the end of the day the batsmen have to work out their gameplan and execute it when the pressure is onWe fought really hard against India last week and with a bit of luck the result might have been different. Two guys being run out with deflections from a straight drive is incredibly unfortunate and consequently, despite a good partnership in the middle, we finished about 15-20 runs short of the kind of total that we wanted.
