Former India captain Krishnamachari Srikkanth has slammed Tilak Varma and other Indian batters following a shocking one-run defeat to Ireland. Srikkanth criticized their slow scoring and lack of attacking intent in the middle overs, stating that such an approach is unacceptable in T20 cricket.

He highlighted a period of 45 balls without a boundary as particularly concerning, leading to India's first-ever series loss against Ireland in the format.
