There were signs near the end of Harris's last spell that on the fourth or fifth day, that their might be a bit of spin. With harris not being the greatest turner of the ball. But your right, shit pitch, no spin at the moment
 
Bloody hell.
Just watched the highlights, unbelieveable innings.
I'd of made a few on that wicket though.
 
Is it just me noticing it more or are a lot of pitches now aimed for batters. When is the last time we saw bowlers on top in a series (not counting England's collapses). Not to take away anything from the 300.

Ahem solution: Ball Tampering. Its where its at. :lol:
 
Saw a bit of the game and by the way the ball was racing to the boundary, the outfield seems to have more bounce, pace and carry than the fecking pitch.
 
amla drives to midoff
shreesant stops it with his foot

commentator - "Cristian ronaldo wouldve been proud of that stop , the manchester united striker"

wtf :nono:
 
Hee hee hee

Oh dear.

Better luck next innings eh lads?
 
Embarassing.

All out in less than 2 hours. What a joke..
 
:lol::lol: @ India.

They're going to get violated (even more so) by SA tomorrow.

Correct

But Tendulkar = MASTER CLASS

Obviously, Tendulkar has scored miles more runs than Kallis and played for considerably longer, but both at their peaks Kallis is better IMO. Tendulkar has played most of his career on batter friendly tracks whereas Kallis generally has to scrimp for his runs. Both class, Kallis is also a very tidy bowler, & a slip catcher comparable with the greatest.

In modern cricket Jacques Kallis is the only player I would pay to watch, and that's saying something coming from an Englishman.

You're blind. Even today both Sachin and Ponting are much better batsmen compared to Kallis. Kallis is a one of the finest all rounders we have ever seen but as a batsman alone he doesn't come close to Sachin.
 
Yes, and if you're looking at stats, Dravid's better than Sachin. You clearly don't understand the game.

Tendulkar average is better overseas than at home. FACT!!!
So your argument that he is plays on flat pitches more is invalid for this argument.

No it's not.

There's only really three remotely slightly bowler friendly test playing nations, England, South Africa & New Zealand.

That still leaves him playing mainly in India, but in Pakistan, WI, Oz, Sri Lanka...your point is flawed.
