India Taps Ambidextrous Spinner Kaushik Maity for SA Test Prep

Following a disappointing 30-run loss to South Africa in Kolkata, where their spinners proved dominant, the Indian cricket team is introducing an unconventional strategy for the second Test in Guwahati. Bengal’s ambidextrous spinner, Kaushik Maity, has been called up to simulate the threats posed by South Africa’s formidable spin attack. This move signals India’s determination to counter spin with spin as they prepare for another challenging, spin-friendly pitch at the Barsapara Stadium.
