#4 The two wrist spinners are second to none
Wrist spinners in today's game have proved to be a boon for any captain. A lot of wrist spinners have been phenomenal throughout the year like Adil Rashid, Imran Tahir, and Rashid Khan. India have, in Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav, two world-class wrist spinners.
Both Kuldeep and Chahal have been instrumental in India's winning run this year. Chahal is the highest wicket-taker in T20Is this year, and Kuldeep Yadav is not far behind. In the second T20 game, when it looked like Kusal Perera and Upul Tharanga would get Lanka close to the target, it was this duo's adroit bowling skills combined with Dhoni's magic with his gloves that did the trick for India.
The two combinedly accounted for 14 Sri Lankan wickets in the series. Yuzvendra Chahal didn't play the third game though.
