While on commentary, former Aussie opener Matthew Hayden mentioned,” It’s an absolute desert. It is so dry.”

While Hayden on Day 1 had mentioned,” No means spinners ought to come to bowl within the sixth over. This is the explanation I don’t like these sorts of surfaces. It shouldn’t be holding this low and turning a lot on Day 1. It doesn’t matter whether or not Australia wins this Test or India. These sorts of surfaces aren’t good for Test cricket.”

The most stinging criticism got here from former Australian Test fast Michael Kasprowicz who informed SEN Cricket,” What’s extra, not one of the 14 wickets fell to tempo. Fans noticed the complete extent of the pitch when Nathan Lyon bowled Cheteshwar Pujara off a supply that turned unimaginably and saved low to hit the right-hander’s leg stump. Just 50 balls had been bowled earlier than Lyon’s peach.”

“It’s a shocker, this wicket is an absolute tip. There’s no way for Test cricket before lunch on Day 1 for a pitch to be playing this many tricks. It throws everyone out. It’s interesting to watch and it’s great watching them survive, (but) it’s not good. It’s not good cricket,” he additional added.

The ICC match referee Chris Broad is nearly sure to take cognisance of the diabolical nature of the monitor and it received’t be stunning that after Nagpur and Delhi which have been rated “average”, the monitor for the continuing Test match might effectively get a “Below Average” score.

India have been all out for 109 in simply over a session whereas Australia managed to crawl to 156 for 4 as 14 wickets fell by the tip of the day’s play.

The diploma of flip was a large 8.3. Nathan Lyon obtained one to dart again in from means outdoors the off stump and that too with ball holding low. Ut left Cheteshwar Pujara shocked. That turned 6.8 levels.

“The pitch makes all the difference if you want to watch good cricket. You must have wickets with even bounce so that both batters and bowlers get equal opportunity. If the ball turns from day one and first session itself and that too with uneven bounce, it makes a mockery of Test cricket,” Former India cricketer Dilip Vengsarkar informed information company PTI.

“It is important to get crowds back for Test cricket. You see that in England and Australia but unfortunately it is not happening in India. People will come back to Test cricket only if it is interesting. Nobody wants to see bowlers dominating the batters from first session itself,” added one of many most interesting batters of spin bowling India have produced.
