Dinesh Karthik move was critical

It is so sorrowful and pretty disappointing for every Indian cricket fan that New Zealand denied India a perfect finish to their highly successful tour Down Under by clinching the T20 series 2-1 with a narrow four run win in the series-deciding third match on Sunday.

Although New Zealand won the series, India triumphed over millions heart by its excellent and brilliant performance. All young boys played well but bowling performance was not as good as should have. Firstly, Shankar and Pant laid the foundation stones for the victory.

After that, Kartik and Pandya brothers continued their hitting in the same way and brought the match to close but whole brilliant innings had been in vain because of a little mistake. It is undeniable fact sometimes a little mistake causes a great harmfulness.

It was the poor call from Dinesh Kartik to send back Krunal in last over. When he was standing on the other hand and had already scored 26 runs in 13 balls. He was also able to hit the boundary. To send him back by Kartik is a very poor and bad decision.
