Venkatesh Prasad has bashed the current Indian team for underperforming in white-ball cricket. He tweeted on Twitter instantly after India got thrashed by the downtrodden West Indies team in the second ODI of the series. Venkatesh Prasad slams BCCI for the constant failure of the Indian team in big tournaments.

The right fast bowler has criticized BCCI on Twitter openly and his tweet is getting a lot of retweets. He slammed the board for their negative attitude as the board seems to be happy with consolation wins. The selectors and the president of the BCCI are not responding to the statement given by Venkatesh.

Venkatesh Prasad slams BCCI

India has failed to win any ICC trophy since the 2013 Champions Trophy triumph which has made everyone question the board. The BCCI is the richest board among all the other cricket boards and it also spends the most on their team.

Venkatesh pointed the same thing in his statement as he said “Despite the money and power, we have become used to celebrating mediocrity and are far from how champion sides are. Every team plays to win and so does India but their approach and attitude is also a factor for underperformance over a period of time”

Despite the money and power, we have become used to celebrating mediocrity and are far from how champion sides are. Every team plays to win and so does India but their approach and attitude is also a factor for underperformance over a period of time.

“Test cricket aside, India has been ordinary in the other two formats” – Venkatesh Prasad

The player has also criticized the approach of the Indian team in comparison to England and Australia’s playing style. He said that India has only achieved great heights in Test cricket in the past decade other than that they have done nothing.

In addition, he said “Lost ODI series against ban, SA and Aus. Poor in the last two T20 World Cups. Neither are we an exciting team like England nor brutal like how the Aussies used to be. Cont”

While the majority of the netizens are agreeing with Venkatesh’s opinion, however, there are some who think that the former player is doing to get a position in BCCI management.

West Indies stun India in the second ODI of the series

The Indian team suffered a symbolic defeat against a West Indies which didn’t even qualify for the upcoming World Cup. Coach Rahul Dravid decided to rest his experienced horses Rohit and Virat to test the young talent in the second ODI however it backfired badly.

The Indian team was all out on just 181 runs which was chased down comfortably by the Windies batters.
