Pitch expert tells MiD DAY that a patch on the wicket could help the Sri Lankan spinner
Things haven't gone Sri Lanka's way in the current Test series but they will be happy to play the last Test of the rubber in Mumbai. For, there's a big chance that the conditions at the Brabourne Stadium might be more to their liking than Ahmedabad and Kanpur, venues of the first two Tests.
Sri Lanka bank heavily on their spin wizard Muttiah Muralitharan for inspiration and wickets. And the Brabourne Stadium wicket might turn out to be advantageous to the world's highest wicket-taker.
