Bad Pitches Somehow Bring Out The Best In Indian Team: Aakash Chopra
After suffering a defeat by an innings and 32 runs against South Africa inside three days in Centurion, India bounced back with a seven-wicket victory on a tricky pitch which always had inconsistent bounce and excessive seam movement. The win is also India’s first victory in Cape Town in seven attempts and also managed to level the two-match series at 1-1.
“When a Test match lasts one-and-a-half days, there are some fallouts. There has been some talk surrounding the pitch. Some questions have been asked. India have never complained about the quality of the pitches on offer. Last time, the Wanderers pitch was really bad. Honestly, some player could have got hurt on it. This pitch at Cape Town, too, was bad.
