T20 World Cup: India will get exposed in knock-outs as they don’t have Plan B, says Nasser Hussain

Former England skipper Nasser Hussain feels that Virat Kohli-led Team India will be exposed in the knock-outs of the ongoing T20 World Cup as they lack a Plan B.

India will face their arch-rivals Pakistan in Dubai on Sunday.

Hussain feels that India don’t have a plan B when their top-order fails in a knock out match.

“When they get to a stage you look at the last World Cup against New Zealand and suddenly it’s a low-scoring game and they don’t have a Plan B. They got rolled over a very good New Zealand side. So that’s going to be an issue for them,” Hussain said on ‘Sky Cricket.’

“The other problem with India is that they are so good at the top with Rohit Sharma , Virat Kohli and KL Rahul boss games and the middle order hasn’t had much of a hit. “You get to a knockout or final and suddenly they are at 30 for 3 because the standard has gone up and the middle order hasn’t had a hit and you go now you need to do it,” he added.

“They are favourites. I wouldn’t say clear favourites simply because of the format. The shorter the game, things can happen,” Hussain said.
