DiaboliK. Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 India captain Virat Kohli questioned the playing conditions at Edgbaston after his side lost by 31 runs to England, who kept their World Cup campaign alive. England - led from the front by Jonny Bairstow and Jason Roy - hit 13 sixes in their 337-7 after winning the toss. Kohli said: "The toss was vital, especially since the boundary was that short - the shortest you can have." "It is bizarre on a flat pitch. It is crazy things fall in place randomly." Bairstow hit six maximums on his way to a match-winning knock of 111, but Kohli was unhappy with the uneven proportions at the Birmingham ground. "If batsmen are able to reverse sweep you for six on a 59-metre boundary there is not much you can do as a spinner," he said. "One side was 82 metres. They had to be a bit smart in the lines they bowled, but you can't do much with a short boundary." If you wanna read more please visit : click !
