Many teams have their own flavor of cricket. For e.g.

• with WI you visualize a team which banks on fearless power-hitting batting and fast bowling
• with Aus, you visualize a team playing tough cricket 
• with NZ, you visualize a team that fights it out to punch above its weight 

 

And these teams display that both home and away. Across multiple formats. What is Ind's flavor?

 

India's flavour has changed over time

2010s --
