Maybe a haircut could help in stemming the flow of runs?

This is a very worrisome problem that India must address quickly. Bowling towards the end of the innings has been a perennial concern for the World Cup winners. Having controlled a large part of the WI innings in the last game, India conceded 35 runs in the last two overs due to a shoddy display from Ishant Sharma. Use the slower ball or the occasional yorker, and keep the deliveries full around middle and off, but do not fiddle with the length.
