Spin will play an important role tomorrow: Shastri

Sydney, Mar 25 (IBNS) India's team director Ravi Shastri has said that he believes that the spin bowling might play an 'important role' in the semi-final clash of the World Cup against India on Thursday.

"It's very important that they bowl well," Shastri told ESPNcricinfo.

"They've been key to our success with wickets in the middle overs, and it gives the captain lot of options. There's a great variety and balance in the attack. I'm sure spin will play an important role tomorrow," he said.

India and Australia will face each other in the second semi-final of the World Cup on Thursday.
New Zealand have already qualified for the final after the side defeated South Africa in the first semi-final of the World Cup on Tuesday.
