Indian wickets always have enough for pacers: Shami

 

New Delhi: Spinners are always expected to dominate in India but the most successful bowler on the opening day of the second Test against Australia, Mohammad Shami, believes the home conditions also offer enough help to the pacers.

Shami ended with a four-wicket haul to help India limit Australia to 263. Spinners Ravindra Jadeja and R Ashwin picked up three wickets each.

At the start of the innings, Shami relentlessly targetted the good length area that helped him get rid of David Warner. Towards the end of the innings, Shami got the ball to reverse and ended up cleaning the tail with the wickets of Nathan Lyon and debutant Matthew Kuhnemann.
