Nagpur: Leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal said big grounds like the one at the Vidarbha Cricket Association (VCA) Stadium in Jamtha provides him with a chance to use flighted deliveries more in order to create a deception in the minds of the batsmen. It's a 75-yard boundary at the VCAâu00c2u0080u00c2u0088Stadium, at least 10 yards more than Green Park in Kanpur.

“Big ground makes a difference. You can flight the ball. Also there's a doubt in batsmen's mind as to which ball to hit and he will have to make a choice. In a small ground, batsman can try hitting every ball, but here he has to pick and choose,” said the 26-year-old Chahal, who was India's most impressive bowler during their seven wicket defeat against England in the first T20 in Kanpur.
“We have not discussed (bowling strategy), but the way they batted in the previous game gives a plus point to the bowlers as they were trying to hit each and every ball. I got hit for a six on the first ball and then I got a wicket (of Jason Roy). T20 is such a quick format that you have to be on your toes always as you don't know what will happen next,” the leggie said.
