sarchasm 2,673 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 The pitch square is so green it merges into the outfield. Should make Indian supports skip a heartbeat. 6 mm of live grass, extra lacquer on pink ball, and batting at twilight against Anderson and Jofra - What could go wrong? Link to post

Sean Bradley 826 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 A very State of the art stadium, hope the pitch is not a dust Bowl and offers good exciting cricket for 10 days with a bit for everyone from batters , pacers, spinners, ala Mohali which is the best pitch in India in my opinion.

Vilander 10,631 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 very orange distinct Gujrat color theme monotonous structure.
