da lvbet: 17-Aug-2001While the batsmen failed to put up a decent score in either innings,selection committee chairman Chandu Borde chose to attack the bowlersfor India’s humiliating 10-wicket loss to Sri Lanka in the first Testat Galle on Friday.”The bowlers gave away too many runs and did not take advantage of thewicket in the beginning when they should have bowled a better line andlength,” Borde told PTI over phone from Pune.”It was yet another dismal performance (by the Indians),” he said butrefused to go into the merits of Saurav Ganguly’s leadership. “This isnot the time to do that… The captain is equally disappointed.”Borde hoped the team would leave the defeat behind and play the nexttwo Tests with a renewed zeal. “Ours is a talented team and all they(the players) need to do is to regroup themselves and play to theirpotential, putting the past behind them,” he said.
