3) Consistency

If one talks about consistency the very first thing that comes to mind is Virat: The run machine. For Virat consistency was never a problem, he continued to score runs in every situation, on every kind of wicket and in any of the format.

Many believe the secret behind his consistency is that he firmly states that ODI and T-20 format is just an extension of Test cricket.

Even in the shorter format his stroke play is just an extension of the strokes he plays in the test format. The most important thing is that he understand his limitations as a batsmen and models his game suiting those limitations.

For example he understands and states it clearly that he does not have the raw power to hit sixes at will, therefore he only aims to place his strokes in the gaps to hit boundaries.
