Bit of tackiness in pitch - Tanveer Sangha
Bit of tackiness in it, if you hit your length, it's hard to get it off the square. Great pitch to bowl spin on. That's the main thing with any wrist spinner - consistency. If a spinner can control his length, he can be very successful on most pitches in India. The more I can get it outside of their hitting line, the more hard it is for them. More risk for him, more advantage for me. That's what I was trying to do against the lefties and tried to attack the stumps against the righties.

We would have loved to bowl. As long as we are losing the toss and winning, we don't mind. I have told them the same thing, don't change anything.
