New Zealand left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner and his spin colleagues are eagerly waiting to grind out on friendly tracks in the Test series against India after suffering a reversal in the T20 series.
India whitewashed New Zealand in the three-match series. The World Test champions are now gearing up for the two-Test series, beginning November 25.
"Hopefully the boys are ready for the first Test in Kanpur. It's a quick turnaround again. We have some good spinners, we know spin will play a big part. It's about just trying to grind out as much as possible," Santner said.
"We've seen how good Ashwin, Jadeja and Axar Patel can be in these conditions. We've got guys like Ajaz [Patel] and [Willliam] Somerville who are pretty eager to see some spinning wickets."
