The 24-year-old Permaul today said he had learnt a lot by watching New Zealand's Daniel Vettori and he has similar plans from the two-Test series beginning here from November 6.
"Most definitely I will watch the way the Indian spinners bowl and try to pick up a few things from them," Permaul said after his impressive allround show (46 not out and 2/61) against UPCA on day two of their three-day practice match at JU Saltlake Campus ground here today.
Not afraid of the mighty Indian batting, Permaul said: "It will definitely be a challenge for me, if given the opportunity - but I am still looking forward to it and testing myself against them."
Permaul also has some experience working with Pakistani great Saqlain Mushtaq and says he's working to hone his doosra.
