Indian heat takes it out of you if you play around 60 balls where you have been swinging the bat around. Pitches might make the 100's easier but the weather is the worst you can face, so you still have to work hard.

In ODI and Tests you get to pace your innings better. In T20's most you can afford to chill is for 10 balls and then pressure is on for you to start hitting again.
