#4 Getting the troublemakers out early
The Indian team has had a history of struggling to bowl against particular batsmen from nearly every international team. From the Matthew Haydens to the Andy Flowers, from the Shivnarine Chanderpauls to the Saeed Anwars, some batsmen from different opposition teams punished Team India bowlers more often than not.
From among the teams that are due to tour the country over the next few months, there are a few players who have a tendency to be at their best against India. This includes players like Kane Williamson from New Zealand, Alastair Cook and Joe Root from England, David Warner and Steve Smith from Australia and Bangladesh’s Tamim Iqbal.
If Virat Kohli’s team can find a way to dismiss the players who have consistently been a thorn in their flesh for low scores, they will surely give themselves a great chance to inflict a series of whitewashes and end the season 13-0.
