IND vs ENG, Surprised To See Leach Not Bowl To Pant: English Bowling Coach
England spin bowling coach Jeetan Patel said on Friday he was surprised that England skipper Joe Root did not persist with Jack Leach against Rishabh Pant and instead trusted his own off-spin bowling and that of Dom Bess on the second day of the fourth Test.
"I was surprised," he said responding to a query on why Leach was not continued with. "I would have loved to see the battle [between Pant and Leach] continue. But with two right-arm off-spinners spinning the ball away from Pant, we thought we had a chance as he had got out to the off-spinners early. We didn't create opportunities," added Patel.
