India should have picked a leg- spinner, says Chandu Borde

Indian team, with a settled combination are undoubtedly favourites to win the ICC World T20 at home but former captain and chief selector Chandu Borde feels that they could have kept options open to pick up a leg-spinner.

"It's always advantageous if you have a leg-spinner in the side. Our wicktes help leg-spinners quite a bit as well as off spin. One has to be careful while hitting against the spin but how much can you experiment in T20s," Borde, who has also been a chief national selector told PTI on Sunday.

For India, who have all their bases covered, the problem of not picking any wrist spinner is because the cupboard is bare.
