"Indian pitch doctors take their craft to a new low in Ranchi"


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

"AUSTRALIA’S worst fears for the third Test have been realised, with India rubber-stamping a pitch stitch-up for the ages in Ranchi.

Curator SB Singh banned Australian players from taking photographs of the wicket on Tuesday, but the latest conspiracy was as clear as rolled mud with Steve Smith’s bemused team now bracing themselves for the dodgiest deck of the series so far.

 The match pitch looked as though it had been played on, with what appeared like footmarks already present."

The whiney whingers were whimpering that the watered and wet pitch was a wasteland of waterless dry cracked wickedness. Poor whittle helpless Steve Smith, oh what will he do now? look to the heavens innocently and pray for more guidance?

Don't get why they are whining so much. Typical Aussie reaction, it appears. Didn't they win the first Test on a very dry surface? Don't India play on bouncy pitches when we tour Australia?

Aussie wickets other than gabba are not considered bouncy for the past 7 years in 2007 2008 the only match we won was at perth the bounciest of all pitches

I have a feeling this deck has a lot of runs in it. It may not spin a lot and instead keep low and slow.Our batsmen have to step up now, not a single century in 4 innings at home doesn't sound good. 

 

Dailytelegraph looks like a meeting place for Aussie right wing nut jobs. So much hatred and delusion in those comments. These Aussie players and media have conducted themselves disgracefully this tour. Compare this to how well NZ and Eng tours went by, those matches were played in right spirit, even Botham was bearable. Hope England pummel this Aussie side in the Ashes this year. Wanna see the meltdown in Aussie forums and sites like dailytelegraph.

it usually does in all venues bar adelaide (where you guys cant grow grass) and sydney- even though sidney is greener than normal when india tours and brown when england does. 

but convicts are shameless in their double standards. Too used to double standards with aboriginals i guess to notice the concept of double standards.

India would be happy to see a track like that to be honest because it will bring our seamers more into the game and reduce the gap between ours and Aussie seamers just like O Keefe seemed world class at Pune. It will take 1 big innings from the batting side to put them into advantage whereas on a more even pitch, it will be a lot tougher for Indian seamers or Aussie spinners to take 20 wickets. You should be happy we gave you a chance to win the game and made the series much more competitive so far.

I would love to play on the greenest of green pitches when we tour Australia next.

 

Our batsmen are good against pace and bounce these days.... they are better players of seam than the Aussie batters .... and our fast bowlers look really threatening on green decks.

 

I promise you that our team won't whine and moan , whatever the pitches, we never do ..... we love to take up any challenge.
