England need to tackle spin: Dada
London: Former India skipper Sourav Ganguly has said that England batsmen need to tackle Indian spinners in a better way if they want to change their fortunes in the limited- overs version. England, who outplayed India 3- 1 in the fivematch Test series, trail the visitors 0- 2 after three outings and Ganguly opines that the Alastair Cook- led side should change its mental approach. “There are two things I think England are getting wrong when it comes to their one- day batting. They’re thinking getting to 300 is a problem and is such a hard thing to do. But why? Their mental approach has to change. Why is it that an India team can just come over here and get 300,” Ganguly was quoted as saying by the Mirror. “The second thing is England’s approach to spin. As soon as they see a pitch where spin might play a part, they struggle and they tell themselves they will struggle,” he added. Cricketer- turned- commentator Ganguly, who led India to the famous 2002 Natwest final win as the Men in Blue chased down 326 runs, said that Cook and company should attack the Indian spinners if they intend to score 300 plus runs. “They should take the game to the spinners and force them to change what they are doing.”
