Vadapav-Ball approach?

Hope everyone embraces this approach. More than Kohli's intent it was Hooda's intent against Moeen Ali that indicated this newer approach.  And also India shouldn't be afraid of using floaters to counter specific type of bowling. 

 

""It's a bit of both," India's captain Rohit Sharma said, when asked if Kohli's new ultra-aggressive approach is a team instruction or a personal attempt to fight his way out of a rut. "We, as a team, we want to play in a certain way, and every player needs to buy into that thought process. Otherwise, you know, it's not gonna happen for you. And all the players, all the batters, who are part of this squad, are willing to take that extra risk and go and see what extra they can do with the bat.

 

It's important to find out within yourself, you know, to try and do different kinds of things. Unless you try it, you will never be able to find out [what you are capable of]. So I think it is something that we have been trying to do for a while now. Some days it might come off, some days it might not. But we don't want to be afraid of going in and taking that extra risk. That's how we're going to learn as a team and that's how we will move forward as a team. So it's in everyone's thought process, everyone is quite comfortable with that idea. So yeah, that's the kind of direction the team is going to move in."

Prithvi shaw will fit this approach comfortably. He just has to iron out a few flaws. He should also work on his fitness.

Approach is not everything. Shaw is completely one dimensional. He should stop attacking wrist spinners or any spinner who balls quick, and cover it up against other types. As of now, he has no modus operandi.
