^^^^ Agreed. But based simply on watching (not hard statistical observations) I would say we rate even more poorly compared to the other subcontinental teams. Ind, Pak and SL have always been excellent players of spin and tend to rotate strike a heck of a lot during middle overs. Jadeja Azharuddin and Robin Singh were dangerous because of how they hung around rotating strike back in the 1996-97 era.

For that matter, our middle order is often stone cold stuck at the crease in many games, unable to switch gears from high scoring strokeplay to smart intelligent batting easily.
