3 things India need to do in second T20I against Australia

#3 Not being predictable in the field

Australia v India - T20

With Virat Kohli as captain, there seems to be a sense of predictability in the way he uses his bowlers in limited overs cricket. One could tell from a distance that he is going to use Jasprit Bumrah and Bhuvneshwar Kumar at the start and during the death and not bring either of them much earlier.

After a cautious start, Australia planned their counter-attack with the bat to perfection. Marcus Stoinis and Glenn Maxwell almost knew that weaker bowlers would bowl the overs 11-16 and that was when they cleared the ropes easily and injected momentum into Australia’s innings.

It was here that Kohli could have brought Bumrah for one over during this period when the onslaught was on from two big hitters. Bumrah has quite a lot of success against Maxwell in limited overs and that could have played on the minds of the latter.

Kohli is someone who doesn't believe in match-ups unlike Rohit Sharma, who juggles his bowlers according to the batsmen and match situation.

Maybe Virat Kohli needs to give importance to this because it can have a huge impact in the shortest form of the game because each and every over could decide the eventual outcome of the game.
