As India’s newest spin twins Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal are proving to be lethal and unplayable for the visitors, the venue for the third match Holkar Stadium’s pitch curator Samandar Singh Chauhan, on Friday, said that the track will be helpful for the spinners too. He further added that the pitch won’t crumble and hence only the wrist spinners will be able to make an impact.
“We have used black cotton soil, brought from different parts of Madhya Pradesh. In this weather, it won’t crumble and it won’t be very dry. It has capacity to hold water but it will be good for the wrist spinners,” Chauhan said.
“We had used this pitch for a two-day match between the players of our Ranji players. Ninety overs were bowled on both days on September 7 and 8 and good runs were scored. It should be a high scoring game,” Chauhan added.
The third match will be played at Holkar Stadium on Sunday, as team India leads five match series 2-0.
