Recommended Posts

Lot of root cause analysis will happen but real reason is Lack of fast pitches at home. Will bcci stop preparing flat tracks...only spin Friend ly tracks which get even a raina look genuine spinner. Problem is batting and slip catching....bowling is a bit of issue not much. No batsmen can play their bowlers on these tracks. Provide genuine fast pitch practice to our batsmen else loose all tests against Australia. Home tigers and outside- sissy. Board and selectors...Please help.

That's already happening in domestic cricket. It's not something that can happen overnight though. As for international cricket at home, it makes no sense to not use home advantage and instead offer fast pitches for the opposition to make full use of.

Lol.have you seen our domestic pitches? Outfields are labelled as pitches
A number of green pitches were prepared for the Ranji Trophy last season that offered good help for the fast bowlers. It's something that's being implemented slowly in Indian domestic cricket now.

learn...create fast pitches at home..
Have been hearing that for last 25 years. BCCI does not want to prepare fast pitches at home. So that is not going to happen.

Even if we create bowling friendly pitches, we lack the bowling quality these guys come up against when playing in England, Australia or SAF. In India, even Vinay Kumar and Pankaj Singh look deadly on helpful tracks. Until we produce good quality bowlers of international quality, pitches will not really matter. It may help organising more India A tours or sending our guys to play county cricket.

We Cannot have Same type of pitches everywhere Test cricket will not be same then.What we need is good pitches like mumbai,Kolkata which offer bounce and swing and spin as day progress.

We need a combination of both.

forget it The game has moved on. Physically stronger players, with dedication to fielding/bowling/batting and not just IPL rule Test Match cricket. This Indian team has no backbone, no fight, and they collapse like gutter dogs.

fast pitches are not the problem. This team could play on those pitches during the early matches on all recent tours. The problem is mental, they simply don't have the fight for a long tour.

You can't simulate conditions. Better option is to play county cricket. If guys like vengsarkar, Sunny, Dravid, Tendulkar could succeed in England no reason why these guys can't succeed.

Had there been green wicket practice....Dhawan KohlI rahane .wud these guys have failed.pujara too. They are hard working and supremely talented. They are 2 levels better than other indian batsmen. Indian batting and slip catching has collapsed. For batting collapse...its the system and coach to be blamed not the players.

How about play to your strengths and start getting batsmen who can play spin and produce some more world class spinners and have home wickets that are dustbowls and turners? Trying to copy other countries is not going to work.
