Should reflect the catches /stumping missed and the bowler to suffer .Often many bowlers look ordinary as the catches dropped in his bowliong is not reported. It is sad as it could affect ones career .Also getting a wicket is a great motivator which is denied.While we all are proud that Dravid has held 209 catches .How many did he drop? Cricket will die if this is the sort of pitches we prepare.
Considering we are still unable to find world class consistent wicket taking fast bowlers, its a tremendow opportunity for young people who are tall and stouted to get into pace academy, learn the art of fast bowling along with basics of good length areas etc and make it to the team. I cannot go because I am not tall

i am tall well built but i have to look after my family i workin a dhaba.
Its time we stop blaming pitch whenever our bowlers wont take wickets. The pitch is good but its just that our bowlers as usual do not know what are the right good length areas of the pitch(which is on and around of the center of good length area of the pitch). And top of that Ishant always bowls in one dimensional way which means no variaty, no brain application to bowl away from the batsman or in to the batsmen etc. And coming to Varon, though he has pace he does not the basics on how and where to pitch the deliveries. Why can't they watch vidoes of England and SA bowlers to learn what are the good length areas etc.
Also, believe me, WI fast bowlers will demolish Indian batting as opposed to Indian bowlers
When the pitch is not assisting the bowlers much it is criminal to drop catches. The toiling bowlers will be disheartened. Three catches dropped by senior players Dravid and Laxman is not good for the youngsters who look upto them.

Where does experience come from? I feel NO problems with experiment at this stage.
Please dont abuse the pitch. It was specially prepared to ensure that nobody gets out so that our dear Sachin Tendulkar can get his 100 in his back yard. No offence, its sheer brotherly feeling.

dont shut your eyes before the fact. See the last 10 or 25 innings played by the top 6 batsmen and see how many 50s they have scored forget the 100s Sheer jelous.....
