Lee\u2019s comments come after India, the table-toppers in ongoing World Test Championship cycle, suffered an eight-wicket defeat to New Zealand in the opening Test at Bengaluru, as the visitors\u2019 got their first Test victory in the country since 1988.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The game also saw India\u2019s lack of adaptability in seam-friendly conditions coming to the light when they were bowled out for just 46 in the first innings under overcast skies at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"India just didn\u2019t go into their shell. Maybe it\u2019s Bazball brushing off on other cricketers around the world. I know that India won\u2019t be proud of the way they played. They played some pretty loose shots.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"This day and age, India is a powerhouse that don\u2019t want to bow down \u2026 they know how to win, and they know they can beat Australia, they know they can beat the Kiwis. They know they can beat anyone on any given day,\" said Lee on Fox Cricket\u2019s The Follow-On podcast.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
At the same time, Lee cautioned them about not doing anything rash when they aren\u2019t able to play aggressive shots. \"But you\u2019ve got to weigh up the risk factor as well. There\u2019s times where you\u2019ve got to go, \u2018Okay well maybe the big shots aren\u2019t working today\u2019. Maybe just rein it in a little bit. I don\u2019t think they sort of summed up the conditions as quickly as what they should have done.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
