India coach Duncan Fletcher has said he is looking forward to working with the seniors in the cricket Test series against the West Indies starting here Monday.The former Zimbabwe captain said that more than the cricketers, it would be a great learning experience for him. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/jun/Duncan.jpg" border="5" /> Duncan Fletcher "The impact is going to be huge. It's a simple fact. More than anybody else, it's me who would learn. I may contribute in a few areas but they have a wealth of experience and it would be interesting," Fletcher said after the fifth and the final ODI here Thursday. Regular captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni will join the Test side while Sachin Tendulkar, Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh and pace spearhead Zaheer Khan will miss the series. Fletcher had words of praise for his bowlers, who he feels will play a major role in the Tests. "Having played so much of World Cup and then IPL (Indian Premier League), it is very difficult to say but I feel they should be able to bowl long spells. I haven't seen any forced action and it makes you feel they will last," he said. "Ishant, in one particular spell, was very encouraging and bowled with good pace, line and length and rhythm. Munaf and PK (Praveen Kumar) had good spells. "Among spinners, Mishra pulled us back regularly. Ashwin bowled very well. Harbhajan put up a good performance," he added.
