At Motera, the ball won’t grip as much as it did at Chepauk and the turn will also be minimal.

How the youngster is managed by his skipper is a big question.

For Titans, skipper Shubman Gill’s season with the willow will be an indicator as to how the team performs eventually.

In the opener, the manner in which Vyshak bowled only one type of deliveries — wide yorker or wide low full-toss — to Sherfane Rutherford’s arc, the home team coaching staff would feel that Glenn Phillips could be a better choice going forward, considering he also bowls off-spin.

But it is the bowling that will give Gill nightmares as most Indian bowlers — Siraj, Prasidh Krishna and veteran Ishant Sharma are one dimensional hit-the-deck bowlers.

No pacer except Rabada has subtle variations in his armoury.
