Ashes: Spin Bowling Is Incredibly Important To Test Cricket, Insists Vettori
Sydney Cricket Ground: Australia’s spin bowling coach, Daniel Vettori, has defended the side’s decision to field an all-seam attack in the fifth Ashes Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) but insisted that spin bowling remains very important in the longer format.
With veteran off-spinner Nathan Lyon sidelined by a hamstring injury, Australia opted not to select a frontline spinner for the Test match in Sydney, the first time since 1888. It’s also the third time Australia has fielded an all-pace bowling attack in the ongoing series.
"It's probably just a point in time. I don't think it's going to be something that's going to continue for years on end. I think spin bowling is incredibly important to Test match cricket. I think people love watching it when it's at its absolute best and when conditions can assist the spin bowler."
