India’s new spin sensation Manav Suthar reveals key to his success

India's 24-year-old left-arm orthodox spinner, Manav Suthar, made a significant impact in his second Test appearance against Sri Lanka. Hailing from New Chandigarh, Suthar showcased his prowess with a match-winning 10-wicket haul as India triumphed by 165 runs. The young spinner claimed 6/55 in Sri Lanka's second innings, contributing significantly after taking four wickets in the first innings.

This remarkable performance came just weeks after Suthar's impressive debut against Afghanistan, where he took seven wickets and was named Player of the Match.

Suthar spoke about his dedication to daily improvement and his focus on refining his skills in every training session. He emphasized the importance of adapting quickly to different conditions, particularly after practicing extensively with the Kookaburra ball following his Afghanistan Test. Suthar credited India's bowling discipline, led by Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav, for their disciplined approach in targeting specific areas, which ultimately proved decisive in the match.

Despite his individual success, Suthar remained focused on the team's victory, expressing his happiness and confidence in his performance. The young spinner's strong start to his international career, with 17 wickets in just two Tests, has already made a significant impact, instilling momentum and confidence in the team as they prepared for the remaining Tests.
