He also highlighted the role played by the pitch and conditions while talking about the dip in his performance.

“As far as my performance is concerned, in the recent past, we have played more cricket in countries like Australia, England and New Zealand where the role of spinners is to support the fast-bowlers rather than being the main wicket-taker. Asian conditions are more conducive for spin bowling as compared to other countries,” he said.
