India captain MS Dhoni is concerned about India's death overs bowling ahead of today's Goa ODI


India captain MS Dhoni is concerned about India's death overs bowling ahead of today's Goa ODI. The Aussie duo of Cameron White and Michael Clarke took 84 runs off the last five overs during the first ODI at Vishakapatnam.

"The last 10 overs have always been a big concern. We have been bothered by the last ten overs for a long time now - one to one-and-a-half years," Dhoni said.

"We had done well in between but have not been really consistent. It's still an area where we can definitely improve.

The end result can depend on those last five overs. If you give 20-25 extra runs, it becomes difficult when you are chasing a total like 290 as you have to score at six an over from the start. "
