In contrast to the common public opinion that IPL 2020 will see an increase in the use of slow bowlers, Ricky Ponting, the head coach of Delhi Capitals, also sees seamers playing a crucial role , especially early in the Dubai tournament. “I think the conditions would change quite a bit during the competition, with just three venues being used. Here in Dubai, we’ve got 24 games. Speaking to the groundsman the other day, he’s just got four wickets that he can use to get five or six games on each pitch” Ponting said.
