Along with change in guard at the top comes some shift from the routine, says a report in the DNA, stating, it began with going in with five specialist bowlers in a Test. “That's what new Test captain Virat Kohli likes and will go with. And that's not the only thing. Indian Test captain has said that he is willing to discuss Decision Review System (DRS) with teammates,” says the report.

“All along, MS Dhoni and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have been against the use of DRS, which has also invited criticism from various corners. The board has, from time to time, maintained that their stance against the referrals was vindicated whenever the system did not come with conclusive evidence. But Kohli has not shut his eyes and ears on DRS. Unlike Dhoni, he says is least willing to speak about it in a positive way. "DRS has always been a question popping up in press conferences. I know that. You have to sit and analyse and ask the bowlers what they feel about it, ask the batters what they feel about that,” adds the DNA report.
