That's worse than some backyard pitches I've played on.

Thank you. We'll have a bat first.

Batted on a pitch like that in Burley in the New Forest, pouring with rain because our captain thought the opposition deserved to win or some such bollocks.

You young whippersnapper. In my day this was considered a good pitch.

Had a captain who decided to bat because he thought the pitch would be better to bowl on later

FTR, it wasn’t

Bounced off the pitch so it's a no ball, yes?

Add Roger Telemachus to the list, and Tapash Baisya, who even held the seam canted so was doing it deliberately. I suspect I've made my point that it was in fact very common

Turns out 'Blocker' Wilson was bowling them in 1997/98. Ahead of his time genius, apparently.

It was clearly what Shaun Pollock and Stuart Clark were doing too.

I think part of what I'm emphasising is that it wasn't just very good bowlers doing it.
