Ashwin offers tactical advice as India prepare to face Usman's challenge

Spin great R Ashwin has a simple suggestion for Indian batters as they gear up to deal with the unique side-arm action of Pakistan off-spinner Usman Tariq come Sunday -- just move away when he pauses before delivering the ball. The 30-year-old Tariq, whose stop and pause action has created quite a stir, has played four T20 Internationals and taken 11 wickets at an astonishing economy rate of less than six runs per over. He could play a decisive role in Sunday's T20 World Cup clash between the bitter foes on a slow Premadasa track. "If he stops before delivering the ball, the batsman has the right to move away. He can say that 'I thought he is stopping'. That will be an interesting case and a huge headache for the umpire," Ashwin said on his Youtube channel 'Ash Ki Baat'. "If I was there I would have done it. One should do everything to win a game within rules. I would simply say I don't know when he will release the ball and I would step away.

Gavaskar backs Kuldeep's inclusion for high-voltage India vs Pakistan match

Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar expects leg-spinner Keldeep Yadav to come in for pacer Arshdeep Singh in the national team's high-profile T20 World Cup game against arch nemesis Pakistan on Sunday. Arshdeep was at the receiving end of some punishment from Namibian batters here on Thursday even though the defending champion home side prevailed by 93 run to maintain its winning streak. He did not complete his full quota of four overs either. "All our bowlers picked up wickets. Arshdeep did not complete his four overs, while Shivam Dube bowled two and Hardik completed his quota. This hints that Kuldeep Yadav could replace Arshdeep against Pakistan. "Sri Lanka pitches help spinners and India have history of playing three spinners. Expect Kuldeep in the XI against Pakistan in Colombo," Gavaskar said on Star Sports' Amul Cricket Live. Gavaskar said the Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav juggled his bowling with the Pakistan game in mind. "Hardik bowling the first over suggests Arshdeep
