#3 Get India out of their comfort zone
Possibly the only mistake England made right through the series is to let India remain in their comfort zone. While they tested India at Rajkot, they could not get Kohli out which meant India possibly knew they would escape with a draw.
In Vizag, they let Kohli and Pujara carry on a huge partnership and Cook did the mistake of letting the duo score freely by setting less wicket taking fields. They also looked under prepared against Shami and lost a few upfront allowing Ashwin and Jadeja a peek into England's middle order pretty early.
If they can put India out of their comfort zone by picking up Kohli and Pujara early and playing out their seamers without losing wickets up front, England are in with a golden chance of repeating their 2012 series win.
