I don't know about that. We've chased down in similar fashion overseas too, not just in India
Yes, but chasing runs down in Hobart or in South Africa is a much different proposition to chasing in New Zealand or England. The wickets perform differently, there is too much inconsistency in what happens off the wicket to go after the bowling for that length of time. You can do it for 10 overs if you've got six to eight wickets up your sleeve, but trying to do it twenty out? You will lose more than you win in NZ.

India need to drop Ishant and work out the Jadeja/Ashwin conundrum as well. We're doing most things right, just need to fix some elementary problems. Honestly the selectors need to drop Ishant from the squad altogether like they've done with some of the senior players in the past, that way Dhoni simply has no choice in the matter.

Varun Aaron for the next game plz.

Oh and MS, next time u win the toss just bat first for a change.
Not a bad concept, considering our team struggles under pressure - Windies crippled us a couple times batting first and putting the pressure on players like Guptill who just can't handle it.
