Former India batsman and coach Sandeep Patil has highlighted how perplexing India’s approach was in the ICC T20 World Cup, which ended for the 2007 champions on Monday. “It’s absolutely ridiculous that Team India had to pray and depend on other teams to qualify for the semi-finals. We have so many superstars in our team,” Patil told mid-day as the Virat Kohli-led team couldn’t make the semi-finals after the New Zealand against Afghanistan clash did not end up in an upset on Sunday.
