Ravi Shastri - Mark Waugh - "Hope All Those Whiners Are Happy": Ravi Shastri's Scathing Take On 'Pitch Talk' - sports.ndtv.com - Australia - India -  Ahmedabad

"Hope All Those Whiners Are Happy": Ravi Shastri's Scathing Take On 'Pitch Talk'

Even before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy began, the 'pitch talk' dominated headlines, with a section of Australian media and some of their former cricketers accusing India of 'customising' pitches as per their needs. After the first three Tests ended within 3 days each, the 4th Test in Ahmedabad saw a flat surface, fetching little to no help for the bowlers while the batters continued to pile runs. Sitting in the commentary box, former India head coach Ravi Shastri triggered a debate, asking if a 3-day result-oriented pitch is better or a 5-day one that produces no result (Ahmedabad pitch).

"This Is Not On": Australia Great Fumes Over 'Pitch Dilemma' In Ahmedabad Test

The nature of the pitches has been the central talking point in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The first three Tests of the series ended within 3 days each, with the 3rd Test pitch also being rated 'poor' by the International Cricket Council. As the attention turned to the 4th Test between India and Australia in Ahmedabad, a different kind of controversy erupted, with suggestions of India preparing 'two different pitches' surfacing. Ahead of the Day 1 of the 4th Test at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Australia great Mark Waugh fumed at the situation, suggesting such a dilemma "is not on".

"Don't Believe The Hype...": Ex-Australia Star's Stern Verdict On Indore Pitch

Former pacer Michael Kasprowicz doesn't understand why so much attention is being given to the pitches in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar trophy as they are "typical" Indian wickets, on which, Australia need to "adapt and adjust". "I don't believe the hype I reckon because for all the attention around the pitches they were typically Indian wickets," Kasprowicz, one of the architects of Australia's first Test win in India in 29 years, told The Age.

India vs Australia - 'Former Players Have Not played On These Pitches': Rohit Sharma On Playing On Rank Turners

Yet another match in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy has ended in less than three days. On Friday, it was India's turn to taste loss as the Rohit Sharma-led side were dominated by Australia throughout in the third Test. The surfaces in Nagpur and Delhi too attracted attention but the one in Indore copped the most flak. The ball was turning viciously in the first half hour and uneven bounce made the task tougher for the batters.

"Was Sledging His...": Australia Great Clarifies Comments About Virat Kohli During Border-Gavaskar Trophy

Australia great Mark Waugh created quite a stir during the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Nagpur. In that match, Virat Kohli was responsible for two dropped chances. First, the former India skipper gave Australia's star batter Steve Smith a reprieve in the 16th over of the day. On the first ball of that over, Smith went for a drive against a fuller delivery and got a thick outside edge. Stationed at first slip, Kohli stretched his right hand but could not hold on to the ball.

"It's Baffling": Rohit Sharma's Weird Tactic For Ravichandran Ashwin Angers Ex-Cricketers

Ravichandran Ashwin has been one of the consistent performers for India on home conditions in the recent past and his impact on the side became even more evident from the fact that he dislodged James Anderson to become the top-ranked Test bowler in the world. As a result, it came as a major surprise to everyone that skipper Rohit Sharma waited around 15 overs to hand the bowl to his top spinner on Day 2 of the third Test against Australia in Indore. While the spin threat was being provided by Ravindra Jadeja, it was Ashwin who ultimately provided the first breakthrough of the day as he dismissed Peter Handscomb. Ravi Shastri, Mitchell Johnson and Ajit Agarkar were all taken aback by the choice made by Rohit and during their commentary, all of the ex-players made it a point to discuss his decision.

"It Was Mayhem": Ex-Australia Star's Damning Analysis Of Indore Pitch For Third Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test

Former Australia opener Mark Waugh was extremely critical of the pitch in Indore after 14 wickets fell on Day 1 of the third Test encounter between India and Australia on Wednesday. The pitch produced uneven bounce for the players and most of the batters were stunned by the amount of spin on offer for the Aussie bowlers. India were bundled out for just 109 and in response, Australia started well but ended up losing four wickets before the end of day's play. "It was mayhem. The pitch was not up to test standard, I think that's a fair thing to say," Mark Waugh told Fox Sports after the day ended.
