Watched a lot of cricket. Course you expect it to spin in India.

Just as you expect a bit of seam movement in England (although overhead conditions just as relevant).

But in my view this has been an extreme example and very, very deliberate in response to our first test win. I think there should be some sort of sanction.

That said we've also batted really badly in this test.
