Having fearless attitude
Indian cricket players have often played the T20 format like ODI cricket. Rahul Dravid wants to break that and assert confidence and belief in players. he wants them to take risks and play dynamic cricket.
“It’s important, especially in this format, that sometimes you just need to go out there and play fearlessly and while doing that, there are chances that you might not always be successful because it’s a short format and you’re always challenged. The pressure is always there. We certainly will keep an eye on that aspect, ” said Rohit Sharma.
Bio-bubble fatigue
Dravid has addressed bio-bubble fatigue as well. Players like Mohammad Shami, Rishabh Pant and Jasprit Bumrah have been given rest. On the other hand, a lot of Space has been given to Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli so that there remains no place for physical and mental fatigue.
Having specialists for key roles

I’m not going to say that we’re going to follow a certain team’s template. We have to create our own template, see what’s best and right for the team. We strictly want to assign roles that we want them to do because at the end of the day what they do here matters.”
Playing a team game

The Indian coach said, “Thinking long term and thinking about what’s in the future certainly is my job as a coach, and that won’t change irrespective of whichever team you’re coaching.
