Kotla ka Ghosla : The pitch-farce

[Rajiv]

Kotla ka Ghosla Shame, real bad and can't blame Sanga, pitch seemed farked form ball one. We can call it superb bounce and all but the bottom line it was very dangerous

[sm332]

Come on folkz. YOu guys watch so many games. Haven't you seen so many uneven things happening on pitch then this.

Mate - if it is just uneven in one place it is one thing. The fact is that this pitch was pretty bad and consequently am not sure what else could have been done. 2-3 spots it was jumping off pretty markedly and another cpl it was shooting through.

[Rajiv]

'tics, yaar - lets book kotla for a game or two :haha:

[cowboysfan]

delhi board needs to be sanctioned ,hopefully we dont stop playing there,kotla has been good for us.

[Shane]

:haha: Fantastic Thread Title!

[Sachin_Rulez]

Good that match has been called off. BCCI should ban Delhi hosting any match for the next 3 years (unlikely to happen though as BCCI babus favor them). Serves well for those Delhi cricket association idiots. Delhi, being the capital city of our country, embarrassed all Indians once again :embaressed_smile:.

[Cricketics]

lol man Rajiv.. Chal book kara rah hoon mai

[Rajiv]

the ghosla for me is that annoying shaped building Chalo yaar, kuch 20/20 khelo

[Cricketics]

Now i hope game is restarted with retoss and India ki batting aaye, Sehwag century marein, and then rain aa jaye so that lanka don't get to bat.

[Rajiv]

11.35 Sorry for the confusion. We heard from the ground scorer that it was called off. That has not been confirmed, however. The DDCA officials, the umpires, the curator and the match referee are inspecting the two pitches. The crowd is very restless. Some section are chanting irate slogans. Gambit is there :winky:

[vvvslaxman]

Nice title :haha:

[Rajiv]

actually sanga was pissed off by the run out, the undeven bounced call the ball to hit the stumps

[Nova]

Someone in the crowd showing "I want my money back" banner. Refund on the order :orderorder:

[ludhianvi]

What made it worse has been the fall of 5 wickets really. I dont think any wicket fell due to uneven bounce if I am not mistaken.

[satishg]

hehe Gra and tics being exposed here. But seriously guys this is the worst pitch i have seen in some time. Poor Sanath after getting hit so many times the match has been called off, he will be mighty frustrated now!

[Rajiv]

would sanga have done the same if this game was played in australia?

[sm332]

I dont know but I havent seen a dangerous pitch in Australia although some of the Perth pitches of olden times may have qualified.

[jf1gp_1]
