It's also worth noting that shortened Test Matches aren't great for short-term finances. Which is why we see so many slow, low, nothingness pitches on the modern circuit. One day I'll write a long Marxian tract, heavily footnoted and rich in dialectics, about how the pinches and exigencies of capitalism are bad for cricket.

Woakes' wicket at the end there showed the difference between batting against the old ball and the new ball. As soon as it came on he didn't look like he'd last the over. Certainly something to note when we see the lower order consistently make more runs, not that it excuses the top order from not being able to do what they're in the bloody team to do.

Who is going to be criticising it???
And I agree this is a great wicket, win or lose this test I would much rather see 200 V's 200 than 500 V's 500. And I'm sure that 99.94% of English posters on this forum would say the same.

Really? This happens every time a non-Asian team is spun out in Asia.

Well, I hope so. But I well remember the self-righteous noises we heard after South Africa's last visit to India...
No it doesn't. What mainly happens is pre-emptive crying by Asian fans about how fine the pitch is.

I think by every team you mean Australia.

Fixed.
Certainly I saw more value in the Nagpur pitch than the Perth pitch, for example.

Well, if there's one positive to take, it's that this dilemma is not going to materialise

Maybe but there's no need to pre-empt muppet comments when none have actually been made. Unless you wanna spend time feeling cleverer than some nameless ignorant people, in which case, youtube is best

It was a passing remark. You guys have made a lot more of it than I did. My main purpose was to praise the pitch, not to snipe at those who'll be sniping at it.
