The decision to depend on batsmen and lack real good bowlers did not pay dividend for Indian in Mohali. The T20 champs forgot ODI is of 50 overs and there is a need for real good specialist bowlers like in-form spinner Murali Kartik. In a good batting strip it is actually more important to have good bowlers.

Indian paid for a strategic mistake. Adamant Dhoni needs a real good strategists in the form of a coach.

Indian batting was superb. But when it came bowling, India did a poor job in containing Pakistan in an excellent batting strip.
