Bishan Singh Bedi lends a helping hand to Australian spinners

Australia may have failed in their bid to rope in Manoj Prabhakar to help their pacers master reverse swing but they managed to get spin legend Bishan Singh Bedi share a few tricks of the trade with their rookie tweakers ahead of the third Test against India.

Bedi, in a pink T-shirt and shorts, appeared in the nets this morning and interacted with both Jason Krejza and Cameron White.

"We discussed cricketing things only. Australian manager (Steve Bernard) requested me to come and have a chat with them and that's why I'm here," Bedi said after the net session.

Bedi admitted Shane Warne's retirement has created a huge void in Australian Cricket even though he refused to underestimate either White or Krejza.
