It would have been better if India played some practice matches against AUS/SA A team on those pitches.We will gain nothing except some big talk from Kohli and Ravi Shastri
I think the popularity of this game is dwindling, do not think lot of people are watching the current series. Too much of anything is bad, it applies for sports too.
If cricket is a game where anybody can winn or loose on a given day,a true sporting nation can not be so insensitive to write a caption like "dominat india set to unleash more misery on srilanka". This is bad mouthingbto say the least and certainly insnsitive.Also what happens if srilanka wins,and how will the writer face this column again.Hence talking with head on shoulders will be innthe fitness of things.
