The 60-year-old said, “They have got some terrific fast bowlers, as good a group as I’ve seen for a long time and they’ve got the spinners that always do the job. Ishant Sharma’s last time out here, he got extra bounce. Umesh Yadav bowls freak (deliveries), Mohammed Shami has been swinging it, Bhuvneshwar Kumar swings it as well. They are not going to play all four, they are going to play three and maybe one or two spinners.”
