Dinesh Karthik points out what exactly India needs to do going into second ODI against Bangladesh

In the first ODI of the three-match series against Bangladesh, the Men In Blue suffered an agonizing loss. After batting first, they could only amass 186 all-out, albeit with KL Rahul's 73. Even though the bowlers did well, the team lost in the end by one wicket. At one stage, Bangladesh was reduced to 136/9.

Meanwhile, the Rohit Sharma-led side is trailing by 0-1 in the series. They need to win their next game on December 7 to remain alive in the series. Meanwhile, Dinesh Karthik has explained India's area of improvement ahead of the game. He said that skipper Rohit Sharma would ask his batters to set a realistic target as the pitches aren't the batting paradise.

"He will definitely have a word with the batters, tell them that I know it's one blip but we are going to experience these wickets in the next couple of games as well. So let us figure out. Let us not think about 300-320, be realistic about what we can get and bat towards that as the goal.

“Two practice sessions won't change you too much as a player. That is always the case, that is always how it works. What will help is introspection at an individual level. One good thing about the Indian team is their ability to bounce back from adversity. They have been a team that has constantly been thrown challenges but they have found a way to come out on top,” he said.

Rohit Sharma will credit the bowlers: Dinesh Karthik

On the other hand, the two-time World Championship praised India's bowling and how they kept the team in the game. He said that Rohit would be given the due credit to the bowlers after the first game.

“He must be crediting the bowlers. He knows they brought them back in the game. In many ways they delivered for the first 40 overs, that is the 80 per cent of the bowling,” said Karthik on Cricbuzz.
