Kolkata: West Indies spinner Shane Shllingford, who took the prize wicket of Sachin Tendulkar courtesy a questionable umpiring decision on day two of the cricket Test against India here Thursday, defended his decision to appeal saying it was his job as a bowler.

“Every bowler has the right to appeal one time and at the end of the day the umpire made his decision and it’s my job to appeal and it is part of the game,” Shillingford (4/130) told mediapersons after the day’s play.

Shillingford, who rocked the Indian top and middle order with his spin and variations, said playing in Indian conditions was a challenge. (IANS)
