3rd Test, Day 1: These Kinds Of Surfaces Are Not Good For Test Cricket, Says Hayden On Indore Pitch

By IANS News March 01, 2023 • 13:06 PM View: 813

Former Australia opener Matthew Hayden slammed the pitch at Holkar Stadium in Indore being used for the third Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test, saying that pitches like them are not suitable for playing the longest format of the game.

After India won the toss and elected to bat first on a dry pitch, frenetic play followed, where every ball was literally an event as the ball turned big apart from variable bounce coming into play, as the hosts' lost half of their side at 45 and eventually lost two more by the time lunch arrived.
