HippoSucks Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Yes curator know eng will win the toss lol I do not agree with these doctored pitch conspiracies, but what he is saying is that England had a 10% chance of winning this match from the start. So what the curators plotted was to create this doctored pitch and if England win the toss, they might win the match. Now if England did not win the toss, then they would lose but they were going to lose anyway.

YCCC Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Same old Aussies always whingeing. I'm not a massive, nationalistic England fan, but making the Aussies throw their toys out of the pram is such fun :finger:
sscomp32 Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Pitches in australia against india were disgrace. +infinity. :two_thumbs_up:
HippoSucks Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 I understood the first part but what makes you think that? :hmmm: The OP said England only had a 10% chance of winning and he thinks the curators/England team thought that too.
Kalia_Test Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 It would have been infinitely more credible if Aus makes comments about pitch doctoring after winning or even drawing the match. These comments after losing ( they are well on their way to lose ) makes them appear as sore losers.
gakgupta Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 This is sheer rubbish..... If almighty Australia is good enough.... ....then they should win on any pitch.....let England create a pitch which suits them....Johnson has been below par and batsmen gave the wickets away....just a cocky play..... Look at the way Clarke, voges and smith got out on first innings.... Arrogance has costed the match

Scarves Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 It's a decent pitch. England just have been out-playing Australia. Home team should work to their strengths, not negate it. Also Glamorgan needs 5 days since they aren't in the best situation.
Kalia_Test Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 be happy OP' date=' pakistan won today[/quote'] :hmmm:
MCGGG Posted July 11, 2015 Author Posted July 11, 2015 I used to like coming here because the discussion was balanced, this thread was stating the obvious, the 5th ashes test in England 4 years ago had a doctored pitch, the first ball bowled on day one went through the surface, for you imbeciles who don't get the meaning of that let me spell it out to you, win the toss and bat. Now we come to the next ashes test in England, remember Australia won 5-0 in Australia last time, they also won a WC In the mean time, the first test pitch resembled the last one, coincidence? I've never seen such inconsistent bounce on an English pitch after 2 days, open your ****ing eyes guys.
gattaca Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Seeing first innings scores England batted pretty well and Australia did ok. No excuses if you don't play well in first innings and also letting moen score is pretty poor as well. Don't know if they tried to bounce him out. Even Johnson scored like 70 in 2nd with out him they would 130 all out. That's poor. Probably they will not have Strac as well for 2nd test. Australia is really strong in home conditions. But meh outside. Tough times ahead for them.i see England winning unless they turn it around.
Malcolm Merlyn Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 I am with the OP here.The english always use nefarious means.
MCGGG Posted July 11, 2015 Author Posted July 11, 2015 The OP said England only had a 10% chance of winning and he thinks the curators/England team thought that too. You agree mate, call a spade a spade.
MK55 Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Have to hand it to dexterity of the pitch creators. Was designed to offer slight help to the bowling side for a very brief period to deceive the viewers. No wonder England lost 3 quick wickets in the first innings for 43 runs. And then it changed mysteriously to assist the batting side in the first innings. This coincided with the period shortly after Root got dropped.
cowboysfan Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 ****ing Aussies are the last people to complain about the pitch,cricket on those concrete drop in pitches are near unwatchable.
Pagalpanti Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Nothing wrong in it but English pundits need to get off their high horse and admit they doctor pitches. They blame the weather/global warming/drainage etc.. Own up. Every team does it these days.
