BRIDGETOWN: The overriding theme of this T20 World Cup, from now on, is going to be spin bowling. How teams deal with spin is going to be key. Yes, there’s also a Jasprit Bumrah or a Pat Cummins who are masters of their craft — fast bowling — and can win games in all conditions, but it’s the tweakers who will call the shots.
India, in their team selection, have been quite unorthodox, to say the least. Once they landed in the West Indies, they opted to go in with three left-arm spinners, something we don’t always see teams doing.
