King Tendulkar Posted November 12, 2012 Author Posted November 12, 2012 If we did a pitch like this everyone would be jumping up and down in protest. Awful pitch.
gloryof83 Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Also shocking crowds for a supposed battle for number 1.
SLICKR392 Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Who are we to complain about flat tracks? We got pwned on a flat track ourselves.
Robelinda Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 even if this is a draw, its been a long time since a draw in a test match in this country, at least 2 years. And this match would very much have been a result had it not rained for a whole day.
rkt.india Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 I dont think it was a real flat track. It would have had a result but for rain. Pattinson and Morkel were the two most impressive bowlers.
Cabinet96 Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 If only they'd prepared such flat pitches when Kohli was over there...:(
Trichromatic Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 If only they'd prepared such flat pitches when Kohli was over there...:( Pitch was flat when Indian team played there.
SLICKR392 Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 If only they'd prepared such flat pitches when Kohli was over there...:( They did where we got 400 something and still lost.
rkt.india Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Pitch was flat when Indian team played there. MCG and Perth were not flat. SCG was not flat first day. Adelaide is always flat.
Chandan Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 Disgusting pitch at Adelaide this year. 482/5 in 87 overs vs Steyn and Morkel? Granted that SA didn't have an effective 3rd and 4th seamer as Philander was out, Kallis got injured after just 3 overs and Tahir was just shocking. Even Steyn wasn't 100% fit and was out for sometime due to tight hamstring. Still 482 runs? No wonder Clarke's home and away average have so much disparity!
EnterTheVoid Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 India won a test match after some 24 odd years in Australia in Adelaide. There was a combined first innings score of 1000+ runs, never heard any complaints of the flatness of the pitch than!
Number Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 Flat Pitch + Poor bowling + Bad captaincy + Imran tahir + Good batting = 482.
EnterTheVoid Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 Btw, I was at the ground today and their bowling attack had as much bite as a toothless tiger.
Bradman99 Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 Btw' date=' I was at the ground today and their bowling attack had as much bite as a toothless tiger.[/quote'] Exactly, can't just blame it all on the pitch. They bowled RUBBISH and we batted well. We were 3/55 at one stage after all! I guarentee if SA batted they wouldn't of scored so quickly.
EnterTheVoid Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 3/55 to 5/482, those complaining about the pitch can't get over the fact that South African bowling conceded another 450 runs before they got another two wickets
EnterTheVoid Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 Yea Brahman99, might as well go tomorrow and watch the South Africans getting thumped some more.
