Former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly has supported the host team to prepare the wicket keeping in mind the fast bowlers and spinners. Let us tell you that on the second day of the ongoing second Test between India and England, Jasprit Bumrah bowled brilliantly and took five wickets.

Ganguly believes that India have quality fast bowlers in the form of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj and Mukesh Kumar with the help of their quality spinners – Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel. Can take 20 wickets on any pitch.

Sourav Ganguly gave a big statement regarding the pitch

India Recently, South Africa was bowled out twice during the second Test in Cape Town and then won the match by seven wickets to level the two-match Test series 1-1. Bumrah also took six wickets in the first Test against England in Hyderabad in spin-friendly conditions. However, other fast bowlers Mohammed Siraj and Mukesh Kumar failed to perform well.

Ganguly wrote on But my confidence to play is getting stronger with every match… They will get 20 wickets on any pitch with Ashwin, Jadeja, Kuldeep and Axar.”

The former BCCI president admitted that the quality of batting has declined in India in the last few years due to spin-friendly pitches. Ganguly said, “The quality of batting has declined in the last 6 to 7 years due to the pitches at home.. Good wickets are very important.. Even on good wickets, India will win the Test match in 5 days.”

Traditionally, India puts pressure on the opposition by playing spin-friendly tracks in most Test matches. This formula has helped them register 16 consecutive home series wins since their last 1-2 defeat to England in 2012–13.
