ShoonyaSifar Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Abrasive pitch, not much swing, seam and bounce but looks okay for quality spinners and pacers who can get reverse swing. Bengal found wanting so far, mainly due to lack of pace. Link to comment
express bowling Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Shami, with his extra pace and skiddy reverse swinging balls, could have been difficult to handle on this low pitch. Mosher and Forward Defence 1 1 Link to comment
ssurenn Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) Bengal 51/2 (23 overs) trail Saurashtra (425) by 374 runs in Rajkot. Manoj Tiwary (13*), Sudip Chatterjee (2*) Edited March 11, 2020 by ssurenn Link to comment
Forward Defence Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Pujara and Saha - the two India internationals in the Ranji finals are striking at 27.85 and 22.95 respectively. Granted that the pitch is sluggish and first innings lead is vital, but how come these two are the slowest? Tells us something about the collective confidence of India bats at the moment.

ShoonyaSifar Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 In a season where seamers have prospered under helpful conditions, one non-bowler friendly pitch and every one seems to have limited striking capabilities. Link to comment

It's all about pitch and conditions. Most bowlers will struggle on such a pitch. Link to comment
Vk1 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 what a pitch they have prepared for the final.. Saurashtra is using their clout in BCCI and probably playing on such fraud pitches for many years I guess.. Suhaan and S_pace 2 Link to comment

Not good for traditional seamers who have picked bucketloads of wickets in helpful conditions. Has started to keep low and take sharp turn gradually towards the end of Day 3 Link to comment
bhakum20 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Unadkat can’t possibly be worse than bhuvi who has lost his mojo. I would bring unadkat back into the national side, will bring much needed variety to the attack. Even if we look at unadkat’s international stats they’re not too shabby, not sure why he was dropped in the first place Link to comment
Gollum Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Just checked we are 2/14 in Ranji finals and last won before I was born Have to get the job done tomorrow, some luck please . SrinjayDutta 1 Link to comment

It is as bad as a pitch which turns square from ball 1 Edited March 12, 2020 by Vk1 express bowling 1 Link to comment

Yeah, this final is a sham! Pathetic lifeless pitch made to take the sting out of Bengal bowlers. If there's no result, make both teams the joint winner.
