Former Indian cricket group skipper Sunil Gavaskar known as for balanced pitches within the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy after the Holkar Stadium in Indore obtained three demerit factors from the Worldwide Cricket Council (ICC). The pitched used in the course of the sequence dominated headlines for being too spinner-friendly and Gavaskar believes that it might backfire for the hosts. Matthew Kuhnemann and Nathan Lyon had been the highest performers for Australia as they made their manner again within the four-match sequence and the previous skipper sounded a warning for India forward of the fourth Check.
“I believe there needs to be just a little extra thought on that. This pitch has backfired in 2012-13 when Graeme Swann and Monty Panesar spun England to a win. I do not assume it is an incredible thought to have pitches of this high quality. You need to have pitches the place there’s a good stability between bat and ball. You need to have a pitch the place for the primary couple of days, the new-ball bowlers can get some assist and the batters can play by means of the road and rating runs. After which from Day 3 and 4, the ball goes to show just a little bit,” Gavaskar instructed India At present.
“I do not know what is going on to occur in Ahmedabad. If the pitch in Ahmedabad is a raging turner, then India would possibly go on to win however as soon as once more the pitch would possibly get demerit factors,” he added.
Gavaskar is among the many many ex-cricketers who’ve criticised the pitches used within the sequence. India will face Australia within the fourth Check encounter in Ahmedabad on March 9.
