NAGPUR: The newly inculcated habit of not playing to the conditions has hurt Vidarbha more this season than any season before. Vidarbha's formula for success has always been having horses for courses. However, for new coach Sanjeev Sharma, that does not seem to be the go-to formula.
Vidarbha, on Tuesday, made the same mistake which they committed twice before, in the matches against Jammu & Kashmir and Madhya Pradesh. The weather was conducive to seam bowling. There was a tinge of grass on the wicket, best-suited for three-pronged seam attack. But they not only fielded just two pacers but also opted to bat under slightly cloudy conditions against Gujarat at Jamtha.
