Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni on Saturday said the ‘biggest positive’ to draw from the team’s unbeaten league campaign in the ongoing World Cup was that the entire side ‘withstood pressure in some way or the other’, preparing it perfectly for the knockouts.
India finished on top of Pool B after beating Zimbabwe by six wickets in their final league match at Auckland and Dhoni said it was ‘good that all his players weathered tough situations with elan’.
“Everyone has been put under pressure, whether the three fast bowlers or the spinners, or the top order in a few games.
This is the difference between playing here and a bilateral series, where the lower order is hardly tested. That’s why these games can be tough as the lower order has not got a lot of chance to bat. Our lower order got a bit to bat today,” Dhoni said in the post-match presentation.
