It could be a hard and dry wicket where thr match took place. Hence the extra bounceWhat most do is they play fair till the match is tight then when they are about to lose they resort to such stuff. The short stuff is on off stump where I am able to hit for singles but not getting away with big shots
Maybe I just need to improve! But I'm not able to replicate the length in nets or outdoor practice. Even with short length during practice the ball doesn't bounce much for spin.
