It is worth noting that Indian batsmen have thrived well across formats. Talking specifically about T20Is, the Indian batsmen did give the opposition bowlers a run for their money, courtesy of the IPL, which helped the batsmen to help the natural T20 game, helping them to express themselves and play according to the situation.
Moreover, the Indian cricket team has got batters who have the acumen to score runs at a rate of knots. It is absolutely essential for the batsmen to assess the conditions before going about their work, while they are playing outside Asia.
