"After the huge pressure that surrounded the game against Pakistan, India's players can now retrain their focus on cricketing matters and tomorrow's final group game at the T20 World Cup. India take on the Netherlands looking to build on Sunday's convincing 61-run victory over Pakistan. The on-off fixture dominated the first week of the tournament and having been able to take the field against their age-old rivals, India produced when it mattered most."
"Abhishek Sharma, the number one T20 batter in the world, has yet to score a run in two innings and his form has caused consternation for fans in the cricket-mad country. India batting coach Sitanshu Kotak is not concerned, however, and says the 25-year-old will come good when it counts. "We don't overanalyse unnecessarily. Sometimes, you only start making more assumptions than the opposition. He has his plans sorted," he said."
"With Sharma struggling, Ishan Kishan took centre stage against Pakistan with a brilliant 77 off 40 balls on a Colombo track that everyone else struggled on. "He is not someone who cares too much about things, which the T20 game requires. He is very talented because he can play all around the ground, so he is very difficult to restrict if you don't get him out," Kotak said."
India play the Netherlands in their final group game at the T20 World Cup in Ahmedabad. India secured Super Eights qualification after a 61-run win over Pakistan.

Abhishek Sharma, ranked number one in T20, has not scored in two innings, causing concern among fans. Batting coach Sitanshu Kotak expressed confidence that Sharma will recover and emphasized avoiding overanalysis. Ishan Kishan scored 77 off 40 balls against Pakistan.
