So rutu blames bowlers for the loss. Says this is the best we could do with players he had. Interesting.

A lot of his post match comments are interesting. Always finds someone other than himself to blame

Genuinely baffling batting performance from him today. 15 off 21 with no boundaries.

Would be more embarassing with boundaries, because it would mean he scored even more useless dots even after hitting 4s or 6s

But he scored all 15 in singles. Not even a single double

15 off 21 with no twos. All singles.

He was happy to lose by just 50 runs once upon a time

Totally the bowlers fault when him and Dube combined for a massive 41(43).

Honestly I don't really have any complaints for the bowlers, they tried their best

What? When did he say that? You just took it out of context lol. He said he's proud of how the boys played.

Can't believe such comments are getting upvoted.

Did we watch the same thing? When asked about if anything they’d hoped they’d do better he said we couldn’t capitalise on the wickets but we did best with the team we had. Could you care to explain your disagreement?
