“India have a very good seam attack and also have the experienced spinners like Ashwin and Jadeja. They have been consistent in all parts of the world (of late) and bring quality (to attack),” said Nicholls. Also the guile of Ashwin and Ravi Jadeja is something that we need to be prepared for,” Nicholls said. Nicholls was a part of the New Zealand team that thrashed India inside three days in two home Tests in early 2020, something that will give it confidence going into the final. 1 and 2 playing the final is a challenge too,” he said.
