Three Indian players who failed to impress

The India vs Bangladesh match was one of the most exciting games of this year's T20 World Cup. However, there were several players on both sides who failed to impress and should be held accountable for their performances. Here are three Indian players who did not live up to expectations:

KL Rahul has been one of the best batsmen across all formats in restricted-overs cricket and has worked hard to become the player he is today.

KL Rahul is one of the best batsmen in T20 cricket and has worked hard to become the player he is today. He has played a lot of cricket in the last few years, so it was no surprise that he failed to impress against Bangladesh.

In his debut season with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), KL Rahul scored more than 300 runs at an average of 41.50, including two centuries and three half-centuries from nine matches. In the 2017-18 IPL season he had a good record as well: 68 runs off 63 balls against Kings XI Punjab at Eden Gardens; 133 off 114 balls against Royal Challengers Bangalore at Feroz Shah Kotla Ground; 117 off 87 balls against Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium; 139 off 112 balls against Delhi Daredevils at Feroz Shah Kotla Ground.

One of the finest players in this format, KL Rahul failed to impress in the match against Bangladesh.

Rahul’s form has not been great in the last two matches. He needs to find a way to focus on both ends when India is batting as it will help him improve as a player.

He failed to connect with the ball on a few occasions and did not look comfortable at the crease whenever he was at the non-striker end. He looked nervous, unsure of himself, and was not able to impose his authority on Bangladesh batsmen.

He needs to find a way to focus on both ends when India is batting as it will help him improve as a player. He has the ability to score big runs in both Tests and one-day games, but he needs to work harder on his batting in T20s.

He also needs to work on his fielding, as he has had a few errors in this format so far.

Mohammed Shami has had an up-and-down tournament so far and it continued in the match against Bangladesh.

Mohammed Shami has had an up-and-down tournament so far and it continued in the match against Bangladesh. He continues to struggle in this format of T20 cricket and with his inclusion, India's bowling attack was expected to be strong but that hasn't been the case so far.

Shami is India's most experienced bowler in this tournament and he has been very inconsistent throughout his career thus far. He has missed out on some opportunities as well which could have made a difference if he had taken them but now that we are seeing just how crucial these moments are for a team's success or failure at this level, there needs to be more focus on improving performance levels rather than relying on experience alone."

Although his bowling figures were decent, they were not great either and he needs to bring his A game in every match that India plays from here on out.

Shami's bowling figures were not great, but they were not bad either. He needs to bring his A game in every match that India plays from here on out because he is a vital part of their side and will directly impact India's chances of winning matches.

It should be noted that Shami's form will directly impact India's chances of winning matches as he is their most experienced pacer in this tournament.

It should be noted that Shami's form will directly impact India's chances of winning matches as he is their most experienced pacer in this tournament. If he gets going, he can be a huge asset for India. But if he doesn't, then India will struggle to win any games with him failing to focus on both ends of the pitch and bowling well enough in decent conditions like the ones provided by New Zealand.
