Former India seamer Venkatesh Prasad on Monday came down heavily on the Hardik Pandya-led team following its T20I series loss to a flagging West Indies, dubbing it a “very, very ordinary limited overs side” that is “living in illusion”.


Taking to X, formerly Twitter, Prasad wrote, “India have been a very, very ordinary limited-overs side for some time now. They have been humbled by a West Indies side that failed to qualify for the T20 World Cup few months back. We also lost to Ban [Bangladesh] in the ODI series. Hope they introspect instead of making silly statements.”


Referring to the Windies’ dwindling fortunes in recent years, Prasad stated that it pained him to see India struggling to perform against them.


“Not just 50 overs, West Indies had failed to qualify for the T20 World Cup last Oct-Nov as well [Super 12]. It pains to see India perform poorly and brush it under the carpet, under the garb of process. That hunger, fire is missing, and we live in an illusion,” he said on the social media platform.
