IND vs ENG: India Had To Bowl Defensively Due To Flat Wicket, Says Shahbaz Nadeem

By IANS News February 06, 2021 • 21:45 PM View: 2192

The flat wicket at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Saturday made it hard for the Indian bowlers to go for the wickets and instead they have been forced to bowl defensively and wait for the batsmen to make mistakes, said India left-arm spinner Shahbaz Nadeem.

Nadeem took the wickets of Joe Root and Ben Stokes but not before the two shared a 124-run partnership - out of which Ben Stokes made 82, to drive England ahead. The visitors finished on 555 for eight wickets at the end of the second day.
