The ongoing Test series between India and South Africa has created a lot of fuss regarding the nature of the pitch. India have won the series with two wins from three matches so far but what has made the headlines were the rank turner wickets.
The Nagpur Test has been in middle of the controversy as many cricketing greats and experts around the world have heavily criticised the pitch for being heavily tilted in the favour of India. ICC Match referee Jeff Crowe rated the pitch as ‘poor’ in his match report. The report has been submitted to the ICC and the BCCI will have to reply within 14 days.
Out of the 40 wickets which were picked in the entire Test, 33 fell prey to spinners. South African skipper Hashim Amla tagged the pitch toughest in his 11-year-old Test career. What do you think?
