What Makes This Indian Team Special? 

• Well-Rounded Batting Order – India boasts an ideal combination of aggressive batsmen steady players, and those who finish games .  
• High-Scoring and Steady – Scoring quickly while keeping high averages is uncommon in today's cricket. 
• Adaptability – Team members adjust their playing style to suit different game situations providing both stability and aggression when necessary. 
• Smart Play – Few dot balls and clever boundary-hitting strategies make them an effective and unpredictable batting group.
