In the Indian Express, GS Vivek writes of Gautam Gambhir's superior ability against the slow bowlers and how that came to be a crucial feature of his batting.
The left-hander has used the dash-down-the-wicket routine against the seamers to break early shackles, but his nimble, risk-free leap against the slower bowlers was met with awe during the Sri Lanka series. It was here that he effortlessly carted Muralitharan with the turn over the cover region and dished out more of the same for the then-unreadable Mendis.
