indian captain dhoni started this problem to gave 10000 rupee to the person prepared the pitch... its common thing home team can make the pitch. same time we keep 1 thing in our mind both the teams r going to play in the same pitch only....
whenever india makes a tailor wicket..there is something wrong..but at the same times..teams like sa,aus prepare wickets to suit their game in gronds like brisbane and jo'brg.why are they never scanned ?

Very good argument.. I might sound extreme on this but time has come to show some money pawar (power, pun intended here). Let's walk-out of ICC body and promote domestice game like IPL, ranji etc. (just US does,promote their games at the local level like NFL, NBA etc.).

I strongly feel that the 2nd test ending within 3 days - we got to give the credit to the SA bowlers who bowled exceptionally well. It was really a terrible batting display from our side.
I make remarks as a sincere cricket fan and lover and I had always loved dead heat matches irrespective of whether we win or not.
Though the last test has been accredited to some pitch problems, the issue of not having an additional spinner in the SA side is a weakness from South African perspective and I should say that we capitalised on that in the right manner... That s it... Had there been an additional spinner in the SA side that would have prolonged the match into the fourth day, then it would have been a different issue altogether.......

I 100% support u. We need to stand up and fight against racisist ICC. They have always been unfair to India and other Asian countries. Its really really discouraging. Its not a sports gesture.
