When Indian bowlers shined, the batsmen failed which resulted in a 50-run defeat against the Australians in the one-dayer played at Adelaide on Sunday.
Indian Captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni blamed it on the batsmen and called upon his players to take up more responsibility. "It's important that the batsmen take more responsibility. The guys must take the initiative when we are playing with five bowlers and one batsman short," said Dhoni.
Earlier the Indian bowlers restricted the hosts to a modest score of 203. But India losed some early wickets while the batting line up failed to defend the total.
