How Ten Days Of Hard Grind In Mumbai Helped Simon Harmer To Bamboozle India At Eden Gardens
Cricket South Africa: Nearly a decade after his Test career suffered a setback on Indian soil, Simon Harmer returned to pick 8-51 - the best figures by a South African spinner in India, and play a key role in the side's famous 30-run win inside three days at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
While picking four-fers in both innings, Harmer captivated all with his control and varying speeds to bamboozle the Indian batters. When Harmer mentioned that Mumbai-based coach Umesh Patwal was behind his turnaround in Tests in the press conference after picking the first of his two four-wicket hauls in Kolkata, the latter’s phone started ringing immediately.
"I never doubted this. I knew from the time he played Tests against Pakistan, he was going to be amazing. Once I heard the news (of his four-for in the first innings), I would normally go and watch it at night."
