What can West Indies players learn from Team India?

Asks Dr Rudi Webster

A few hours after India’s exciting and historic win against Australia in Brisbane, a close friend sent me the following comments: “FANTASTIC! They beat Australia with a novice bowling attack. They chased 320 odd in the 4th innings. That should inspire our players (in Bangladesh).”

A few days before the Brisbane Test, an editor of one of India’s largest newspapers contacted me and asked, “What advice would you give to Team India? They are depleted for the Brisbane Test due to injuries. I am writing a piece on the Brisbane Test.”

The editor was concerned that Team India would play below their normal standard and would lose the Test match and the Test series.
