OEC (Opportunity, Experience, Confidence)
OEC factor oozes in the Indian Team touring Australia. A team that started the test tour did endure a one hour poor performance and was in a Center of a unwanted history. I can imagine that day the dressing room would have gone through mixed emotions with elements of sad, frustration and grieving calmness.
Yes, calm but it was just the calm before the storm. Team India picked themselves from bits and pieces under a new captain and it was just a situation of moving goal post. Everything was moving around including players due to injuries. The long team in the bench had the Experience to take the Opportunity and execute it Confidently scripting Melbourne win followed by solidarity draw at Sydney.
OEC was instigated by inspiring T20 league where domestic players and international players set out in a common ground and a goal which was immense to the players. This scaled up to a very competitive and “opportunity for talent” environment. The rest all was in social media, mainstream media, memes and provided the ink to write history.
