The current world averages of the ratios $R_{D^{(*)}}$ are about $4\sigma$ away from their Standard Model prediction. These measurements indicate towards the violation of lepton flavor universality in $b\rightarrow c\,l\,\bar{\nu}$ decay. The different new physics operators, which can explain the $R_{D^{(*)}}$ measurements, have been identified previously. We show that a simultaneous measurement of the polarization fractions of $\tau$ and $D^*$ and the angular asymmetries $A_{FB}$ and $A_{LT}$ in $B\rightarrow D^*\tau\bar{\nu}$ decay can distinguish all the new physics amplitudes and hence uniquely identify the Lorentz structure of new physics.
