2nd Test: Jadeja Eyes Early Breakthroughs On Day Three Despite Not Much Spin Available
On the second day of the match, India declared their first innings at 518/5 and reduced the West Indies to 140/4 at stumps, with Jadeja taking three of those scalps. Veteran all-rounder Jadeja’s experience and tactical clarity will be key for India, who are still in a pole position to wrap up the series 2-0.
“The red ball is not spinning much; the bounce is also less. We will have to bowl more from the shoulders. If we bowl slowly, it won't bounce, and it becomes easier for the batter to play. We have to mix and vary the pace. We will have to vary everything, because it's not that easy and not every ball is spinning.”
