Team India reached South Africa to lock horns with the hosts for a Test and ODI series as hot favorites. As India won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and nearly won the England series in their backyard, the team was expected to win the series and end the long wait of winning a series in South Africa.
But what happened in the series was not expected by the fans. Team India lost the Test series and ODI series as well. Men in Blue could not give a tough fight, this is what is bothering the fans.
The unexpected performance by the Indian team in the tour had raised a new debate that the players have been playing a continuous game with a proper break that in turn resulted in a heavy toll on the mental and physical health of the players.
Indian speedster Jasprit Bumrah had shed light on this during the T20 World Cup and said that players need to take a big break as the bio-bubble is affecting the players as they have been staying away from their families for a long period.
Looking at the schedule of the Indian team, we cannot expect a break. In a few months, the World Cup will start, and before that India will play a couple of series in India.
