Texy Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Obvious ploy to make sure matches last 50 overs.....plenty of runs...more eyeballs = $$$
Lord Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Obvious ploy to make sure matches last 50 overs.....plenty of runs...more eyeballs = $$$ People will get bored though Low scorers are best
Texy Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 People will get bored though Low scorers are best True...low scorers could be thrillers...but it probably has something to do with advertisers' demands.
MechEng Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Flat pitches get unnecessary criticism. Sure, you won't as many great bowling spells or close games but you will at least get to watch batting exhibitions from Sehwag, McCullum, Gayle, DeVilliers and the like.
Number Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 ABD looked like batting on the different pitch though. Amla bhai and others were struggling.
amiret Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 It is better to replace bowlers with bowling machines and change the game of cricket into a hitting contest. There is no point in having fast bowlers on pitches like this.

Gambit Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 This is why the 1999 world cup is the best one post 1992.
Cricket_Hacker Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 This is why the 1999 world cup is the best one post 1992. 92 was a poor world cup.It is rated only because of coloured jerseys
bowl_out Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 People will get bored though Low scorers are best Depends... not the ones like Eng vs NZ
Lord Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Depends... not the ones like Eng vs NZ That was hardly boring though
bowl_out Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 That was hardly boring though But ended in 4 hours
Lord Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 But ended in 4 hours Who cares, Would easily prefer that to these snooze fests
flamy Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Why are they dropping in pitches? What's the point of playing in Aus/NZ then?
HippoSucks Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Flat pitches get unnecessary criticism. Sure' date=' you won't as many great bowling spells or close games but you will at least get to watch batting exhibitions from Sehwag, McCullum, Gayle, DeVilliers and the like.[/quote'] Every other ball being hit for six, one sided game, 150 in ODI every other game, bowlers losing all their confidence etc. Does't sound like a good sport to watch. New viewers might be attracted to cricket for a few matches by this nonsense, but it won't last long. If I want to see a ball being hit far, I will watch golf, not cricket.
riya Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Its always easy to blame it everything on evil BCCI.
