Paceman Mark Wood reveals the potential of Indian bowlers reverse swing Got the idea of the English camp.
“I thought the way India bowled reverse swing, it was a top draw, especially Bumrah. As a fellow fast bowler, you watch that spell and give him that respect,” Wood said during an interaction on Wednesday. manchester.
“We are trying to take things as how they went about it. The end of the pitch was particularly abrasive and Jadeja was bowling rough. He got the ball into reverse swing position in 30 overs.
“When we bowled we missed a move there. We didn’t try to get the ball in that position. We tried to keep it for a normal swing and there was not much movement. We have discussed it.”
The English camp are now working overtime to fine-tune their reverse-swing act, with conditions at Old Trafford likely to help.
“Manchester has hot weather. The pitch here is bad. Spin will also be more of a factor,” commented Wood.
However, it is not just about reverse swing. For Wood, the range of India’s attack is remarkable.
“I think the Indian attack is highly efficient, it has speed, they are all a little different, with different angles, different actions. It’s great to see, I mean it’s not good to face as a batsman, but as an opposition player, you can get a lot of respect.”
“And Shami, I’ve been very impressed with him throughout the series. His skill level, his accuracy and it’s been tough for the batsmen on both sides. It’s a good bowling but we believe we have to compete. As much as we can. Well we can.”
Wood, who was eager to do something different, highlighted how the extra speed could break the analogy about the English attack.
“Jofra and I try to make a difference with our pace. When the pitch becomes flat like in the previous game, you saw what Bumrah can do with the extra pace,” he claimed.
