I agree. India and SL are generally very good against spin due to which we get a free ride when commentators from Australia and England refer to Asian teams as good players of spin.
Most of our batsmen genuinely struggle against spin.
They are the weakest players of spin among the SC teams. Tey are especially weak against sla bowlers so Jadeja might be a big threat. Mishra is quite a hittable bowler as he flights the ball a bit. Should bowl flatter and quicker to stifle the batsman ala![]()
That Asia Cup ODI, Mishra looked unplayable for Pak at times.
Mishra is a decent bowler, but I think Pak batsmen struggle mightily against Leg spin.
Amit Mishra is a must. In fact, India should play all 3 spinners and one fast bowler in Shami.
They played Ashwin very well. Amit caused more problems to Pakistani batsmen.
No. Jaddu,Mishra and Ashwin can indeed play but we need Shami and Aaron/Kumar i.e. at least two pacers. Too many spinners will make it very predictable for oppn. batsmen.
BK is not good in these conditions. He will be taken for runs.
Aaron will be hit to all corners of the ground. Both BK and Aaron cannot contribute anything with the bat.
In these conditions, I prefer Raina/Yuvraj over Aron or BK.
Our bowling will not be predictable. Our spin will have variety. We have LeftArm spin in Jaddu, Right arm mystery spin in Ashwin, Leg spin in Mishra and orthodox spin in Raina (who spins more than Ashwin and Jaddu).
In the Asia cup game, Pak batsmen could not do much against our spin. Our fast bowlers got a phainty as usual.
Aaron didn't play against Pakistan did he. He was troubling SL batsmen with pace and bounce! Him and Shami are an absolute must against pakistan if not any other team. Playing so many spinners will be suicidal.

Pakistan have handled Sir pretty well in the past. Ashwin & Mishra have been problems
Pak struggle against all kind of spin bowling because when they feel a bowler is bowling well they go into a shell and allow that bowler to dictate terms as a result allowing him to become ultra attacking.
Makes me wonder if it's worth playing Muirhead against you lot.
That’s 5 impressive wickets for the young Australian leggie Lloyd Pope against Pakistan today at the second practice match vs. Cricket Australia XI.
1. Imam-ul-Haq
2. Haris Sohail
3. Muhammad Rizwan
4. Babar Azam
5. Iftikhar Ahmed
Is this a one off or show we expect problems against Lyon and Labuschagne in the Tests?
