Amit Mishra returned to the Test fold after a gap of four years and the legspinner grabbed his long-awaited opportunity with both hands on the tour of Sri Lanka. Justifying the selectors' decision, Mishra ended the three-match Test series on a high, claiming 15 wickets at an economy of 2.84, which has made former India legspinner Narendra Hirwani happy. "I have seen how Virat has used [legspinner] Yajuvendra Chahal in the IPL as an attacking option. Now with Ravi Shastri part of the team management, legspinners are back in the scheme of things. "Shastri too likes leggies. He was my first captain and my best performances - both in Tests and one-dayers - came under Shastri," Hirwani added.
