I am a huge supporter of rank turners and don't mind 2 days test matches at all. But this Left-Right differential pitch curating (if true) is not cool. We don't need this Chindi Chori to win in India. 

I agree.. this may end up backfiring on us

I know how Australians think, they will be angry and feel this is unsportsmanlike behaviour.

 

They will come out with a strategy to counteract this ploy by us.

 

Seriously, I just Pant was here to add to the verbal warfare, Im not happy about having a "Temporary Wicketkeeper". :hysterical:

If I was in India at Nagpur I would be digging up the pitch overnight outside off stump.

 

I think this is hilarious.

 

Dont think Indians havent suffered from dirty filthy tactics in SENA countries for decades.

Question has to be asked, is it derelict for India not to play 4 spinners if the pitch is as bad as what it appears to be?

 

I presume the favoured one would be Siraj here, so the question to be asked is would a 4th spinner do more damage than Shami?????

 

On that Nagpur Pitch I saw, YES.

Man Aussies have provided us fairest pitches among SENA teams...  Saffers & Kiwis on the other hand deserve spitting cobras. 

This doesn't look good. 

History suggests NO.


Recent history sure, but not beyond that.

 

India played a Test at Sydney where Kumble and Warne failed to take a wicket IIRC. They manufactured a batting track to negate our spinners.

Actually, the fact that Aussie pitches are by far the worst when it comes to aiding spinners, I would say they are the most unfair for the Indian bowlers atleast. 

 

It's just that because our Batsmen play pace & bounce relatively well but can't play swing & seam to save their lives, you get the impression that they provide fair pitches.

They didn't give us a pitch like the one they used vs SA in Gabba.  Although I agree India did get a spicy deck in Adelaide last time.  MCG was greener too but not dangerous.

No they dint provide ****. 1st test was a pink ball. That behaved weird. 2nd was a spicy pitch which backfired on the Oz pussies. 3rd was a dead track cause they got scared of our pace bowling. 4th was a road.

No it's because our pace bowlers since 2015 have been world class is the sole reason we can win there.

They won't give spicy because we all saw what happened in 2018 and also briefly In Melbourne 2021. Our bowlers can be devastating  

 

Only coolie cock swallower like putridevus would say otherwise.
