India will know that since England dont have a specialist spinner anymore - after Graeme Swanns retirement and the disciplinary issues Monty Panesar is struggling with - its highly unlikely that they will prepare pitches that will spin big even on the fourth day. One advantage the Indian spinners have is, they will not find it hard to get used to the Dukes ball, because it is similar to the one they use at home, the SG Test ball, which has a pronounced seam. The Dukes ball stays hard throughout, which is a good thing for a spinner, especially on a dry surface.
