Crisis! Go out to see a client and get back to mayhem. I would call this a choke, but that according to some armchair critics is only a South African occurrence...

Joking aside, it can't be too often you have two centurions in your innings and still end up losing an ODI.

Lost 46/9 after getting to 277 in the 37th over (7.5 RPO achieved)...ouchies, that is quite the turn-around in fortunes.
 
MS Dhoni: "Im not angry, I'm disappointed. This was one game we should have batted much better. I'll take responsibility, I should have carried on but I got out.. There was a bit of pressure on the youngsters. International cricket is all about pressure, you think about the right shot. You realise you have to take a bit more time and take the game slightly to the end. Rohit batted very well with Shikhar. And Dhawan and Kohli batted majestically. In the last five years, we have not had a fixed bowling line up other than the spinners. That pushes us to the extreme to get some extra runs.

If they persist in fixing and doctoring their home wickets for spin, they will never succeed outside of the sub-continent. Only have themselves to blame for the loss.
