I don’t want to be seen as a one-trick pony: Wagner

Hamilton, Dec 6 : Left-arm New Zealand pacer Neil Wagner, who has become famous for troubling Test batsmen around the world with his short-pitched bowling, has insisted that he doesn’t want to be seen as a one-trick pony.
Wagner got some noticeable swing in the first Test against the West Indies at the Seddon Park which the Black Caps won by an innings and 134 runs on Sunday. He took 2/15 in the first innings and led the New Zealand wicket haul in the second innings with 4/66 to take his Test tally in 212 wickets in 49 matches.
“I’ve always worked on that,” Wagner was quoted as saying by stuff.co.nz while talking about the swing.
“I don’t want to be seen as a one-trick pony. I know I can do other things. In first-class cricket I do work really hard on those sorts of skills. It’s summing up the conditions and what’s in front of you.
“We know the short-ball plan hasn’t always gone to plan, with the shorter boundaries you can leak runs. I guess it comes down to experience and the knowledge of the ground, and discussing with the other bowlers,” he added.
The left-arm pacer said that the team sticks to the short-ball plan if ts going to be effective
