'150-160 can be a good score': Mike Hesson

"On certain grounds, role of spinners will be really big. In a place like Abu Dhabi, spinners have traditionally played a big role re, it is a bigger ground and spinners come into equation. But it probably doesn't spin as much as it does in Dubai and Sharjah," Hesson said in a video posted on official Twitter handle of RCB.

"We have loads and loads of information on every wicket, but we need to have ability to adjust to conditions on given day. Spin will obviously play a part. Over here in UAE, 150-160 can be a good score," he added.
