New Zealand Focused On Adapting To Pune’s Spin Challenge, Says Mitchell
Maharashtra Cricket Association: New Zealand all-rounder Daryl Mitchell has urged his team to quickly move on from their historic win in Bengaluru and brace up for the potentially spin-friendly conditions in the second Test against India, starting at the Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) Stadium here on Thursday.
After securing a memorable victory in the opening Test — their first in India in 36 years, Mitchell stressed the importance of adaptability as the Black Caps prepare to face a determined Indian side looking to level the three-match series.
New Zealand’s 1-0 lead has intensified the race for places in the World Test Championship final, but Mitchell emphasized that the team’s focus is firmly on the present. “One thing we can’t do is change the surface,” Mitchell said in the pre-match press conference. “It’s all about reacting to what’s coming at us and adapting on the fly.”
