India will back themselves to clinch the Test series against West Indies when the second Test begins here today on a lively Kensington Oval pitch. India won the first Test by 63 runs at Kingston, Jamaica. Rahul Dravid scored his 32nd century in the second innings and was instrumental in India's comfortable win. The bowlers did their job, contributing with wickets. Praveen Kumar was lethal with the swing and Ishant Sharma extracted whatever little pace and bounce the slow surface had to offer. He will be raring to bowl here with the pitch expected to be helpful to the pacers. "It's important that pacers adapt themselves for on a wicket with more bounce, they need to bowl fuller to get bowled and LBW dismissals. Length will be the absolute key," said India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who had a close look at the pitch after a training session on Sunday and said he'd like to go in with three seamers and one spinner.

Ishant and Praveen will be the other two pacers while Harbhajan will be the lone spinner. ufffd
