#2 Reading and picking Amit Mishra
On an Indian surface, you would always back a wrist spinner to deliver. Amit Mishra tried his best but just couldn’t. From Joe Root to Ben Stokes, everyone seemed to pick India’s third frontline spinner well and time and again he was smashed to the fence with disdain.
The leggie’s famous googly too was well dealt with. Stokes even smashed a few into the stands after picking the length early. Yes, there wasn’t much turn or bounce on offer but at times it seemed like the bowler had run out of ideas.
After the lunch session on Day two, it looked like Mishra had just given up. That showed too in his bowling as he dragged a few half way down the pitch and bowled quite a few full tosses.
