(In the last match) the conditions and situation were different. They are a good bowling attack. It is not like we can’t play them (Pakistan pacers). They are a good bowling attack and on certain days they will have an edge. When we get a start, our batters are capable of putting up a big score,” Rathour mentioned on the post-match press convention nearest Republic of India defeated Nepal by way of 10 wickets on Monday.

However there shall be some suits the place we want to proceed with an out-and-out month line-up. After we play games on a tone the place we want an too much spinner that choice could also be to be had in Axar (Patel).
