Yeah Lawry really does love his roads. Always praises them.

These pitches have been flat for years just you had a couple of geniuses in McGrath and Warne who could get wickets on anything. Imagine how good their averages would have been on sporting pitches.
They actually played a lot of cricket on decent pitches. Actually reckon McGrath might've done slightly worse as less cricketers would've gone after him.

On average watch .... Cook now over 46 and Trott 63.4

Doherty is dreadful. Loved Nasser just now "Doherty picked to get Pietersen out, trouble is they can't get him in.":laugh:

International Regular
England bowlers did alright with some tight bowling, a decent spinner, and good tactics.

The performance from bowlers, captain and fielders has been dross today.

I dont care though, we've put up with 20 years of this.

International 12th Man
Who was it saying Haddin was a better keeper than Prior? That was not a difficult chance. His second drop of the series too, neither of which have been that tricky.

You're saying that like the pitch at Adelaide has never been flat.
It probably wasn't flat a while, but yeah it's been dire for ages.

What really gets my gears is that they produce sporting pitches at Shield level, but flat one's for tests!
