Laaloo Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 The same wickets they have been preparing on recent tours. If our batting wasnt so inept, we would have managed to draw about 4 matches. The pitches in England were pretty flat. Even in Australia, the pitches were flat apart from Perth. No way we should have lost that badly.
vvvslaxman Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 http://www.espncricinfo.com/india-v-australia-2013/engine/match/598813.html?innings=1;view=commentary This one was in Hyd. They have played on surfaces like this before. But they had better batsman. Peter siddle was the top scorer for them in both innings. That explains the standard of their other batsmen.
FischerTal Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 Zak? In England he did get injured but was decent in Australia. He wasnt the same Zak anymore. Yadav took more wickets
panther Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 Pitches with a lot of bounce not much grass is needed bounce is enough for the ftbs.

cowboysfan Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 wickets were pretty good in australia and England,we just capitulated without a fight.

We were whitewashed coz the team sucked, not because the players were home bullies (they are sucking at home too). The current team would have drawn some matchs at least.
ravishingravi Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Well I hope they return the favour. To be honest, away wins and perfomance is all that matter in indian context.

Gunner Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 With an attack comprising of Yadav, Bhuvnesh, Shami, Zaheer and a good wrist spinner, I think we can more than compete on green pitches abroad. Actually, helpful tracks present us the best opportunity to score test wins overseas (and against weaker Asian teams with decent spin attacks aka Pakistan and SL) as shown by most of our overseas test victories (Jo'burg 06, Perth 08, Cape Town 10).
