But I'm really impressed with the bowling and fielding. Certainly better than they did before.

as far as I am concerned, we lost more matches due to batting than bowling when he wasnt the coach. We failed to defend low scores against Sri Lanka, failed to chase a moderate total against Afghanistan, failed to score runs against Hong Kong, failed to score any sort of commanding total for the entire T20 WC. Failed to chase decent totals against India A when he joined. So for the most part, the batting failures were the leading reasons for the losses. In this WC, the only match which we could blame the batsmen for is the knockout match. Against Srilanka, it was a complete bowling and fielding failure.. against New Zealand, it was poor captaincy
