ODIs no chance - pazhaya records eduthu nokkiyaal mathy, they've struggled big time in India (provided we play full strength teams). T20s - there is a chance.

Tests - pazhaya Ashwin alla puthiya Ashwin. Aa oru factor aanu ettavum valiya difference between last series and this one. If Ashwin keeps 80% of his current bowling form, and if two batsmen click from our end (i.e average over 60 in the test series), then oru whitewash vare nadakkaan chance kaanunnu.

Only worry is that we are playing on two untested test pitches - Rajkot and Vizag.

Disagree. The DRS back then was really pathetic. There were far too many decisions in favor of the home team - especially because the third umpire wasn't really trained in DRS and its ways.

I still have reservations about ball tracking tech in DRS. The whole logic behind it's correctness is like saying "ball tracking is good, because ball tracking is good" type. Oru independent verification after exhaustive testing varaan valare adhikam thaamasichu.

But over time it has got refined and certainly is implementable. Even SRT changed his opinion towards end of his career in favor of DRS.
