Won’t Complain If Pitches Spin From Ball One; It’s About Finding A Method To Combat It: Ollie Pope
Ollie Pope: Ahead of England’s five-match Test series that starts in Hyderabad on January 25, vice-captain and top-order batter Ollie Pope said his team won’t be complaining if the pitches in the series spin from the first ball and added that it is all about finding a method to combat the spin challenge in the sub-continent.
Pope was a member of England's squad which came to India in 2021. After winning the opening Test in Chennai, the visitors’ lost their way to lose the series 3-1, with Ravichandran Ashwin and Axar Patel running through the batting order.
“There will be a lot of outside noise. And pitches can be a massive talking point. But you have to remember the two teams are playing on the exact same wicket, so we just need to be as well equipped as we can.”
