With regards to communicating his feelings or considerations, Kapil Dev is really crude. Known for his dull and to-the-point appraisal, Kapil's assertions have in the past made swells, be it his directive for Arjun Tendulkar contrasting him with father Sachin, or remarks on Virat Kohli when he was out of structure. The previous skipper has been vocal with his perspectives all through the T20 World Cup, and India's ouster from the competition after an embarrassing 10-wicket rout has set off Kapil to a degree that he named Group India with the feared 'C' word. Given India's history in ICC competitions over the most recent nine years, Kapil expressed that while this group has carried a lot of shrubs to the nation by winning some significant series, the way that it generally staggers in ICC competitions is very disturbing and concerning

"It couldn't be any more obvious, now that the match is finished, it is unreasonable that we ought to descend this hard in the Indian group. Indeed, they didn't play well and analysis is legitimate. Yet, to the extent that the present match, all we can manage to say is that England read the pitch better and played better cricket. I won't stay into the subtleties and won't go all out in slamming them in light of the fact that these are similar players who have gotten us a great deal of regard before however indeed, they are chokers. There is no denying it - subsequent to coming so close, they gag. I get it however I would in any case agree that that the group needs to look forward. It's the ideal opportunity for the youth players to approach and assume responsibility," Kapil said on ABP News.
England, who had scratched through to arrive at the last, totally outflanked India arriving at the objective of 169 in only 16 overs with opener Alex Hales and commander Jos Buttler hammering unbeaten half-hundreds of years. India were by and by let down in the Powerplay, scoring only 38 runs for the deficiency of one wicket and completing at a disappointing 168/6 on a surface where 190 was effectively gettable. Afterward, anything that opportunity India had from the get-go was squandered with Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Arshdeep wandering with their line and lengths, an element Kapil figures went far in determining the end result of the match.

"All the details and expectations we concocted have been disproved. England stepped their power and put on a showcase of clean T20 cricket which we seldom see. Such a major win in an elimination round is uncommon, yet full credit to England inside and out. India swung he ball at first however bowled outside off. What's more, on the off chance that in the initial 2 overs, 20 runs are scored, the bowlers' cadence gets broken. Indian bowlers gave England room outside off and their players made use advantage," referenced the previous India commander.

"I'm not saying that Bhuvneshwar Kumar is a terrible bowler yet his line and length was normal. By and large, you would agree that that 170 is a standard complete however at that point your bowlers need to bowl as per the objective set and the pitch. After a sluggish beginning, we recuperated well however with that bowling, it never looked that we could stop England."
