Batsmen with dodgy technique are found out in alien conditions

While the batsmen of modern days are equipped with technique to score quick runs, they lack the ability to survive for long durations. Not many batsmen today are termed as Test specialists and their technique is exposed in the toughest format of the game.

Most batsmen these days are experts at home, in their familiar conditions, but when they are playing in adverse conditions, they fail miserably. For example, teams from the subcontinent struggle on the bouncy tracks of Australia and South Africa, and on the swing-friendly conditions of England.

Similarly, those teams find it extremely difficult when they face the quality spinners of India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka on turning wickets. Increasingly, series’ are ending in whitewashes, with the team at home dominating the visitors.
