#2 Outstanding control

Mishra has outstanding control over his deliveries

Be it the leg-spinner, the googly or the faster one. Mishra has outstanding control of all his varieties. Wrist spinners nowadays lack that control and end up bowling long hoffs and full tosses. But with Mishra, you would seldom see him doing that.

Now, this hasn’t happened overnight. You would constantly see him sweating it out in the nets, mainly focussing on his weaker deliveries.

He has also been a veteran at the domestic level and has thus mastered the art of finding the perfect length and line.

He is a quick learner too and does not make the same mistake twice. He is quite brilliant also, in setting up a batsman by sending a few away and then bringing one back to him.
