India getting bowled out for 89 against New Zealand in the fourth ODI here has left <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/ind-vs-nz-4th-odi-team-india-head-coach-gautam-gambhir-defends-ruturaj-gaikwad-despite-poor-outing-23659809" rel="nofollow">head coach Gautam Gambhir</a> concerned as the collapse is not one off and happened in conditions that are similar to what the team will encounter during next year&rsquo;s World Cup in South Africa.
Gambhir admitted that the manner and speed of the batting collapse, rather than the low total, was a worry ahead of the global event.
&ldquo;You&rsquo;re always concerned when you get bundled out for 90-odd. Why won&rsquo;t I be concerned? These are conditions which are going to be closest to what we might get during the World Cup,&rdquo; Gambhir said at the post-match press conference.
&ldquo;The bigger concern is not the runs. It&rsquo;s how quickly we got bundled out, around 26 or 27 overs,&rdquo; he said.
