As shown with the signing of Pragyan Ojha for the final part of the 2011 season, a 'mystery' spinner can often make a major difference to the outcome of a campaign. Having someone of Kartik's quality on board for the entirety of next season will be a great boost.
Sachin always gives you that energy on the field. He advises me all the finer points like how to deceive a batsman. How to deceive in flight... His tips have helped me in getting at least 10-15 Test wickets
These players have performed well in the Ranji matches. They have scored big totals, taken ample wickets, which is a positive sign and I hope they perform in the same manner in this series. We are expecting Pragyan Ojha and R Ashwin to perform like Harbhajan Singh and Anil Kumble did during their time
The series was intense. West Indies played brilliantly in patches. But the way we suddenly bounced back in their second innings was thrilling. I am excited to be selected for the Australia series and I hope to play to my potential
I think it's going to be the surprise element of your bowlers. Just recently watched a bit against the West Indies, so I liked the young quicks you got -- Umesh Yadav and Varun Aaron. I also liked the two spinners (R Ashwin and Pragyan Ojha). They've done a good job and compliment themselves well. So, t...
I did not play international cricket for about one year. But I never had that negative feeling. I always stayed positive which resulted in this performance
Sachin always gives you that energy on the field. He advises me all the finer points like how to deceive a batsman. Pragyan Ojha on Sunday revealed that he gained heavily from the tips of Sachin Tendulkar. How to deceive in flight... His tips have helped me in getting at least 10-15 Test wickets
Earlier, like any youngster I was slightly impatient and wanted to take wickets off every ball
Unfortunately, we cannot help it as the team selects itself. In Australia, you cannot have more than two spinners. Pragyan Ojha and Ashwin are doing an excellent job. Sometimes it becomes bad luck, sometimes people miss out. I'm sure everyone has their own time and space to come back
I remembered one sentence by Sachin Tendulkar who would tell me if you love the game, you don't need anything to motivate you. I always wanted to play and that kept me going
I agree that the new spinners (Pragyan Ojha and R Ashwin) have done well. But that doesn’t mean you can ignore Harbhajan. If you look at India’s performance at home, it has always been good. So it is not surprising (that Ojha and Ashwin did well). The real test comes when we travel overseas. There, pitc...
