It is very similar to Mendis&#8217;s show in his first few years. For Mendis, it was not only the mystery of his deliveries, but his accuracy, the same is true for Narine. The batsman has no idea whether or which way the ball will turn&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Bayliss said added to this, Narine was pitching the deliveries on a good lengths which made it difficult for batsmen to hit him.<\/p>\n<p>However, Bayliss also praised his other bowlers. &#8220;The others have done exceptionally well too.
