Morne Morkel, India's bowling coach, asserts that the team has yet to deliver a 'complete game' in the ongoing tournament. As India prepares for the Asia Cup final against Pakistan, Morkel emphasizes the importance of stepping up the batting performance under heightened pressure.
Although Indian spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakravarthy have successfully stymied most opponents, including Pakistan, the batting lineup, aside from Abhishek Sharma's standout performance, has struggled under pressure. Morkel highlights the need for better strike rotation and partnership protection in challenging conditions.
Morkel outlines areas for improvement in bowling, specifically focusing on the initial overs' execution and accuracy. He acknowledges the team's skills but insists on better clarity in high-pressure situations. Despite acknowledging the team's imperfections, Morkel is optimistic, learning from past 'ugly' wins to improve in Sunday's final.
