After India's forgettable defeat in the Champions Trophy final last year, a change was needed in the spin bowling arsenal to ensure they complimented the fast bowlers better.

That came about when the management decided to test out a whole new pairing in Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal in white-ball cricket.

What began as an experiment turned into a complete shift in the line of thinking for India's white-ball prospects as the duo wrecked havoc in pair, dismantling opposition after opposition regardless of whether the pitches assisted them or not and it meant that apart from the fast bowlers, Kohli had two spinners in his arsenal whom he could use at any point during the course of the game.
