The Seamers bowling against the strong breeze need to be smart.
I thought they weren't green Seamers but I thought they suited us more than India.
Our Seamers were good for 30-40 minutes
but theirs were able to do that throughout the day.
When I came into the England side, my job was to prepare the ball for the Seamers.
But this is not the first time that left-arm Seamers are proving to be a powerful weapon in a World Cup.
In New Zealand, the ball is also slightly different but
I feel England is more challenging when you are batting to Seamers.”.
It was only comparable to Nagpur in 2012 when we played in India and
on that pitch we had four Seamers to bowl.
This was the third time India's Seamers have taken 19 or more wickets in a Test,
and all have come in the last two years.
So, if Australia's Seamers do find success using full-length in-nippers
to arguably the world's most risky Test batsmen, it could go some way to swinging(or seaming) the series in their favour.
But if dew is going to be a factor, then Seamers as well as spinners are going
to find it challenging because once the ball gets wet, neither Seamers can do much nor the spinners.
It's been a frustrating trip for me really because you want to contribute to the wins and I feel like I have tried my best but
it's not really been a series for the Seamers.
