Former India batsman Sanjay Manjrekar questioned India's batting approach and par-score assessment after the hosts failed to defend 336 in the 2nd ODI of a 3-match series against England in Pune on Friday. Quality of opposition’s batting an important consideration when assessing par score along with pitch and ground conditions. Lesson learnt for India tonight. #INDvENG Moeen Ali bowled 10 overs for 47 runs in today’s batting conditions. It wasn’t because he bowled brilliantly it was more because Ind didn’t really go after him. Ind would look back at that as a grave mistake not to be repeated in similar conditions. #INDvENG This is the reason why my player of the match last ODI was Shardul. If not for his 3 wickets, this would have been India’s fate in that game too. #INDvENG Sanjay Manjrekar took to social media after India's 6-wicket defeat and pointed out that 336 posted by Virat Kohli's men was not enough against a power-packed English batting unit on a flat surface at the MCA Stadium in Pune. The former batsman highlighted Moeen Ali's figures of 0 for 47 in 10 overs and questioned why India batsmen did not go hard against the off-spinner in the middle-overs.
