Last game of the last series in England, first ball of the game went through the top, a disgrace. First game this series, England has a 10% chance of victory, but, doctor the pitch and win the toss they have a 90% chance. This is becoming a habit, make no Mistake this current pitch was doctored.

What is wrong with this pitch ? Eng scored @ over 4 Runs an over both innings . Aus have the better bowlers but still failed to restrict Eng in the 1st innings. Shane watson should have been sacked 2 years ago.

4 an over batting first and were skittled for less than 300 on a 3rd day test match pitch, think before you post.

Don't see a problem as long as both teams are playing on the same pitch - its not like Eng batted on one pitch and bowled on the adjacent pitch. If Eng is better equipped for the conditions, then kudos to them. When SC teams go to WACA, Brisbane - they know about the bounce but still can't do much as they dont have the bowling to exploit the conditions or batting to thrive. Can't call it doctoring. Same when Aus,Eng visit SC. That is why SA is the best team for all conditions. They dont crib about pitches and have players who have an all-round game for all conditions.

All round conditions? Do you have any idea what's happening? England know they can't beat Australia on all round conditions, which is why they doctor the pitch and pray they win the toss, they did it on the last game of our last tour, tell me dipshit do you ever recall a ball going through the top not only on the first day, but the first ball of a test in England? Personally I think it's time Australia reconsidered its schedule, because this is bullshit.

India prepare pitches to suit their own, as do we, but England prepare pitches for the toss, and they know winning the toss is the only hope they have, I'm bitterly disappointed cricket lovers as yourselves don't see this, sigh.

Pardon my ignorance but what exactly is a doctored pitch' date=' one designed to fall apart after day 1??[/quote'] Putches outside Aus and SA are doctored pitches for aussies.
