With the pitch deteriorating, the spinners are expected to play a vital role - they took 14 out of 15 wickets on Saturday - and Vettori said they got more purchase with a newer ball. "I think it is more dependent on how you use the bowlers," he said. "As the day grows and the ball gets older it dies a little bit. We found that when we were bowling. I think Bangladesh were at their most dangerous early on with both [Abdur] Razzak and Shakib bowling with the newish ball. As the day went on I was out there and it didn't seem to be turning that much. I guess it gets easier the longer you bat but that's the same anywhere in the world."
