Batsman's caution helps me - Narine

Fri, Jul 4, '14

 West Indies offspinner Sunil Narine believes the caution a batsman takes against his variations allows him the freedom to get set into a spell, Narine told ESPNcricinfo in a recent interview.

"I only have three [different] balls." he said. "Just to keep the batsmen thinking. Once you have the batsmen thinking they tend to look at you a little more and in the extra time they look at me, my overs tend to finish."

Narine had to sit out during the recently concluded Test series against New Zealand as he couldn't make the training camp on time due to the IPL, but his return would help the hosts offer a sterner challenge to New Zealand in during the two Twenty20s. Narine has 12 wickets from five matches against the visitors.
