He does "miss playing Test cricket" and India's limited overs skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni is keeping a keen eye on the series against West Indies starting on Thursday, saying spinners will play a huge role in the Caribbean.

"I think wickets will be slower in West Indies but you never know. I think spinners will have a huge role to play," Dhoni told mediapersons at an event in New Delhi on Wednesday.

The skipper said what he finds impressive is that India now has a pool of 8 to 10 genuine quick bowlers. "The more the competition better it is. It's good that finally we have a pool of 8-10 bowlers who are pushing for selection. If I look at a year back, during an ODI series against South Africa, there were a few bowlers who were injured.

"And we have bowlers with all areas covered. If you want pace we have that. If you want swing, we have that. Of course, we have to be careful about injury management," said Dhoni after his company Rhiti Sports' tie-up with former Australia pace bowler Craig McDermott's company Secured Venture Capital.

Dhoni also feels that India's batting line-up has a lot of quality. "We have a settled top six batting. There can be one or two new faces but more or less that's how the mix works. They have also played outside subcontinent and have necessary experience," said Dhoni.
