In the T20 showpiece that concluded on Sunday with Australia’s triumph over New Zealand in the final, teams batting second have won almost all their matches. “The commentators were saying that the dew factor wasn’t there today so I don’t think it came into play that much in this game but I think it has in the previous games and maybe that is something that needs to be looked at,” Gavaskar said.
