Wrist spinners will get a chance
Rahul Dravid said before the third ODI against Australia that people always assume in advance that the ball spins on the Indian pitch but it is not always the case. According to Dravid, the ball did not spin at all in the last two matches and neither does anyone know what will happen in the World Cup. The league round matches are to be held in nine cities. These wickets must have been used a lot during the World Cup to be held in the month of October. For this reason, Dravid feels that wrist spinners can prove to be more helpful.
Kuldeep will be given chances
Dravid said that having wrist spinners would be beneficial during the World Cup. He said, ‘If a wrist spinner is bowling well then he would be a better option. Taking wickets in the middle overs is very important. That’s why we gave Kuldeep continuous chances. We also have Chahal who is currently out of the team. We are constantly trying to give opportunities to the players and at the moment Kuldeep’s name is ahead here.
