India’s strength and strict strategy have been clearly visible in the 8 victories so far. But many times the real strength of the team becomes visible when the match is lost. The playing style and strategy of the Indian camp has overshadowed its rival teams – Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan and Afghanistan in this matter.

Indian team has improved its game
Team India has lost by more than 100 runs only once since July 2017. The bowlers have been amazing in this. The fast bowlers first tighten their grip on the batsmen and then the spinners do their job and win the match. Experts say that now the teams have changed their strategy. She does not wait till the last over to win the match. Virat Kohli’s batting is a great example in this. Chasing their runs and that too with control and finishing the match during the chase as quickly as possible.
Target chase of 275 is not easy in Indian subcontinent
Experts say that chasing the target of 275 is not easy in the Indian continent. It is easier to bat during the day. Because the conditions of the pitch and field change at night. After the introduction of T20 cricket format, the style of batting players has changed. Also, with the start of the Premier League, cricketers are now less dependent on selectors.
Teams are adopting Dhoni’s strategy
The latest trend of one day matches shows that now teams want to lose matches by small margins. They use all their strength to reduce the difference of runs. This miracle has happened due to the strategy of Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Chennai Super Kings. Teams are now playing in other formats. Dhoni-CSK’s strategy is to score big in less overs. But doing this in 50 overs is a bit risky.
