The only logic that I can think of of batting first after winning the toss is take up a few early wickets. The wicket doesn't have cracks, like we usually see. So the caoch/captain - team management thought that if we can take a few early wickets using the moisture on the pitch, then it will be a sonay sohaga.
But the thing is that coach did not think that our pace bowlers would be so indisciplined.
And as the commentators are saying, the pace bowlers are trying to bowl faster than they can, which results in bowling short of length balls and thus so many runs are scored off by the Indian youngsters.
After 8/9 overs, when our pace bowlers did start to bowl maintaining a proper line and length, there have been lots of edges that are going to the boundaries, resulting in even more runs for the Indians.
