Proteas ready to unleash Maharaj on Rawalpindi's 'bunsen burner'

That's what Proteas captain Aiden Markram expects from the Rawalpindi surface for the second Test, which starts here on Monday.

"We've expected those types of conditions from day one," Markram said on Sunday.

"It's about us having done some homework post the first Test and coming up with new plans to hopefully counter that and give ourselves a chance of succeeding in these conditions.

"I suppose when you get to spinning conditions, the guessing game is always how long until it really starts to spin exaggeratedly."

Fortunately for the Proteas, their most accomplished spinner Keshav Maharaj has returned to full fitness and will significantly boost the visitors' chances of utilising the conditions in their favour. Maharaj missed the series opener in Lahore due to a back problem.
