Trichromatic Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 A country should have set of good pitches. England has tracks for everyone. Oval - spin friendly Lords - batting track TB - Fast bowling paradise.
crics Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 How about the Cape Town Pitch? 15 Wickets so far on day two in just about 50 overs. Is it good for Test cricket?
Trichromatic Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 India Australia series 2004 - Best set of pitches for a series.
gaurav92 Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 Absolutely fabulous track the one in Newlands :nice:
panther Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 huh it dont make sense the total % = more than 100
f.b.m Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 Variety of pitches. Its good if you have Kotla and Galle wickets as long as pitches in Durban and Barbados are just as extreme on the other end. Bottomline is there should be a balance between bat and ball regardless of whether it supports seam, spin, reverse swing etc, etc... Kinda like asking what kind of cuisine is best for food isnt it?

That is why the poll is multiple choice. you can choose more than one type of pitch, even flat ones.
gaurav92 Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 The track at Newlands is going berserk it seems :cantstop:
varun Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 huh it dont make sense the total % = more than 100 'Coz it's multiple choice, and the system seems to calculate the percentage based on the number of users
kevinpp24 Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 A pitch that helps should be good. As stuge said a perfect pitch IMO should swing at start off everyday, seam all 5 days, should spin and seam vigorously on 4th & 5th day, bounce should be even.
Trichromatic Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 The track at Newlands is going berserk it seems :cantstop: Track is fine. It's just bowling version of pitches where both sides score 450+.
