Smith is right.Actaully the match was lost by Virat Kohli due to poor captaincy of committing couple of tactical mistakes.Chosing to bat first was a wrong decision reflecting his lack of confidence in his bowlers.RCB's primary strength is being able to chase down any total even beyond 200 and he must have belief in that. He read the pitch wrong too when he thought 180 was a safe total.To that extent he could afford to take more risk with likes of Sarfraz khan to follow.It is really sad his first 100 were wasted and that is why given his liking for successful chase in the past he must take chance to chase whenever he wins toss. In fact all the pitches in IPL-9 are good for chasing allowing to plan the innings better with target in sight.But bowling certainly looks a worry with Virat yet to get the right combo in the absence of Starc.He must solve his bowling riddle.Coming to Lions, all ,credit to Raina for executing his plans well including scoring runs with bat.
