As per ICC reports, Indian bowlers were not getting the proper swing in comparison to England bowlers and he took the ball for purely Home Work purpose. Mahi strongly feels that the bowlers should know how to get reverse swing correct. It will strongly help Indian bowlers in the upcoming World Cup in England.
Dhoni says, I asked the ball to see why we weren’t getting enough reverse swing. Because we’ll be playing World Cup in England and what’s it that we have to do to get reverse swing going. That’s very important. The opposition was getting it, and we should also have got it at some point or the other.
