It's only the second day and there's "ridiculous" spin.

Not to discount WI deficiencies in playing spin

Does Brian Lara offer consultancy.


WI players can learn a thing or two about playing spin especially in Sri Lanka

Teams all over prepares pitches that give the home team the best chance to win, except the WI. However, there is a reason why regional spinners in the WI have so much success locally, the batmen do not have the patience and concentration to handle spin.

But this is a horrible pitch and SL has been guilty and what they do is akin to pitch doctoring. It is why SL cannot win when touring.
