The Barsapara Stadium track is more suited to Indian team’s current template, assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate said on Saturday but insisted that the result of a Test match is determined by the quality of a team and not the pitch.

“My personal point of view is that the wicket very rarely determines who wins the game. If we’d played better in Kolkata, I feel we could have won the Test on that surface,” Ten Doeschate said. “But having said that, you’ve got to introspect and look at recent results. These sort of wickets maybe do suit us a little bit better.”
