MELBOURNE: Former England skipper Kevin Pietersen has advised Australia to either learn to play spin quickly or skip the tour to India for the upcoming four-match Test series later this month. "Learn to play spin very quick. "You can, you don't need to be on a spinning wicket to play spin properly or practice spin, you can be on any type of wicket. It's about picking length, and picking lines and getting your feet going," he added.Australia haven't fared well in Tests while touring South Asia since 2004. "As soon as you start planting like a lot of southern hemisphere batters do - dead," Pietersen said.
