Do you think young Indian batting line-up cannot play spin as well as it's predecessors ?

Question

Young cricketers might have improved against pace but their are not playing spin well at all.

If Mendis debuted in 90's then batsman of India would have played well against him.Shane Warne,the spinner who got nightmares from Indian batsman especially tendulkar made Yuvraj and Dhoni his bunny in IPL.

Murali whose record was bad against India compared to other countries have also started taking plenty of wickets against them.

Answer 1

yes

Answer 2

The seniors had greater exposure to quality spin those days.They also took greater part in domestic cricket(Ranji...).Nowadays even the seniors don't have that much exposure as before.That is why they are also struggling.

The tight international schedule restricts exposure to domestic cricket to both the seniors and juniors now.No wonder both are struggling.  

Answer 3

u have to remember, its a brand new team now....back than it was dravid, dada etc...these young guys are better players against fast pace...

Answer 4

india predecessors were gr8s of all time..  

Answer 5

I don't think the Indian Cricket team EVER played the spin well. And it's not about the young cricketers on the team, they have done well, it's about the seniors who have played many games that are making it seem that India can't play the spin.

Murali is one of the best bar none and Mendis is another Murali in my opinion.
