A good wicket should have help for everyone... the seamers early on, the batters next and finally the spinners...

Jamtha,Nagpur. Perfect pitch for Indian conditions

[ganeshran]

dumdumdigadiga ne saare options select kar diye :wall:

[bajrang]

bit seaming for first two day and turning square for the last two. bounce should be even.

The mumbai wkt we played against Sri lanka was a great wkt IMO.had swing on moring session all 5 days and turned from 3rd day IIRC.Best wkt for test cricket. An ideal wkt though is one where it swings as well as as turns for all 5 days.So no advantage to anyone winning the toss.

If I had to pick one, it would be something with bounce

The best pitch is one where in the first innings both teams, if the batsmen apply themselves and have patience are able to score 400 (even bounce, something for the seamers if they bend their back, a little bit of turn if the spinners rip it enough). In the second innings the pitch should have deteriorated to the point where it is impossible to get past 250-300 (raging turn, uneven bounce, big footmarks/footholes having a big impact). Only the brave and tough should survive and be victorious, the mentally weak and impatient should get roasted.

GREENTOP. i looooooooooove aussie tests.. !!... the times when McGrath and Brett Lee would bowl to Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid in a bowling friendly pitch. NOTHING BETTER IN THE WORLD.

[Jersey #10]

depends on where the match is being played If it's being played in India then I say, square turner If it's being played in Australia then I say, Green top

According to me mohali track is superb bcz in the mohali track their is good bounce for pacers and good turn for spinners and also a good batting surface.
