India vs New Zealand: After picking up four quick wickets in the first session, India were clawing back in the game but then Rachin Ravindra-Tim Southee controlled proceedings to put the visitors in the box seat again in the ongoing Bengaluru Test. With NZ in trouble, former India cricketer Parthiv Patel reckoned that the pacers should have been brought back into the attack, rather than continuing with Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. Parthiv reckons India missed a trick.
‘Siraj was brought back, but it was too late’
“I think the trick was missed. Rachin Ravindra and Tim Southee attacked Ravichandran Ashwin and Kuldeep Yadav. India bowlers were in control before that, but the two batters changed everything. Siraj was brought back, but it was too late by then. I think sticking with the spinners didn’t favor India,” Parthiv Patel said on JioCinema.
