BRENDON prepared Bazball by fielding an entire attack of spinners in the second Test against India.
MCCULLUM is to double down on After claiming an unforgettable victory in the curtain-raiser at Hyderabad, where sole seamer Mark Wood bowled 25 overs without taking a wicket on a slow turner, nothing is being ruled out by the England coach.
Going into a five-day game with just one pace option looked a remarkably bold move a week ago but, with 18 of India's 20 wickets falling to spin and the others to run-outs, the Kiwi is flirting with an even more maverick selection.
After watching Lancashire's Tom Hartley take nine wickets on debut, including a decisive 7-62 on the final day, he is entertaining the idea of throwing another newcomer into the mix if India serve up a spinner's paradise in Visakhapatnam on Friday.
