The fast bowlers will struggle at this wicket and will only look threatening with the new ball in hand. Once the ball loses its shine, it will produce an amazing contest between the spinners and the batters. Off-spinners are going to be lethal at this pitch, so expect Ashwin and Lyon to pick a lot of wickets.
