Ummm no, India were bowled out for 105 in 40 overs on day one, we got to 205 and a 100 run lead but could only get 80 odd in chasing 100 and lose by about 13 runs on day 3. That pitch was worse than this one and the scores prove it. India only made it look worse because how spineless they were with the bat.

Fair enough. Apologies.

I remember watching Clarke's 6-9 in a pub in the city and thought it was late in the test.

It was late in the test because we only last 30 overs in our last dig

And now the ICC have got involved and called that 1st test pitch poor and looking to fine Indian cricket board

However, I think it is a smokescreen and there will be no action, as the ICC is run by India.

The solution for India is not doctoring pitches.

Go Aussies in next test.

 

[strider]

The ICC are pissed India lost ... they demand a pitch that will get them, i mean India, a win

India earn 90% of the revenue in world cricket, they run the game the ICC are just a toothless Tiger. I'm sure the Indians are shaking in their boots, but no way will they prepare a pitch like that again they can only afford to lose one more test and they lose the toss again......

[hineyrulz]

Really??? Surely it will have a mow before play starts otherwise Starc and Haze will destroy them.

 

[Twizzle]

yeh, they mowed Pune with a wire brush but maybe after the shit they got in they might try soemthing different

They have one decent quick and then there is Beaker, lol

Nah a lot of their wickets start a bit green....then they get aggressively mowed and rolled, and they often quite literally bake them hard with steel trays full of coals.

It'll be a deadset road by Saturday you can guarantee that

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

yeh, they mowed Pune with a wire brush l

Quite kinky.

 

[TheParraboy]

I hope we win the toss on Saturday and are still batting when we belt Manly late Sunday arvo...

 

[Twizzle]

Well that would be about 5 sessions, say about 500 runs

I could live with that

 

[TheParraboy]

wade and MMarsh the not out batsmen?

 

[Twizzle]

yeh, Wade still trying to get off the mark
