“On this surface, yes, because Australia don’t seem to have the kind of spinning attack, apart from the fact that they are missing out on key players like Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc,” Gavaskar instructed India In the present day.
“Their batting is good. The batting is very aggressive. The ideal thing would be for India maybe to chase, rather than having Australia chase,” he added.

“Not at all. Well, if you had a look at our spinners in the first few overs, they did not get much help. Later on, as the pitch got a little bit better after the rolling after the dew had settled in, there was a little more grip for the spinners, but it wasn’t an impossible pitch,” he mentioned.
“There was a bit of turn. It’s just that the bowlers did so well that it was impossible for New Zealanders,” he added.
