I thought the ICC said that test match wickets should offer something for both bowlers and batsmen. This one doesn't.

Calm down. Two days to go yet. Its not as much of a road as some of the ones served up in the IND-PAK series. I would have like a little bit more juice but there might be a result yet.
And in the end, you want a result.

Have you been watching any of the games in Australia over the last 5 years?Originally Posted by Bob Bamber
Anyways i wouldnt be surprised if we have some of our celebrated Aussie forum members coming up after this series and still telling us about how Australia are producing the best test match wickets in the world....

Beckham = the most overated footballer EVER!!
Vassell = the biggest disgrace since rikki clarke!!

It doesn 't matter...after recent tours we've realised that at the end of the day cricket is always the winner, even if both teams struggle to score 100 or, alternatively, score 1000.Originally Posted by tooextracool

Honestly if Brisbane is considered to be the best wicket in Australia after the rubbish that has been served on there over the last few years its quite a sad scenario really. Australia had 800 odd for 10 wickets on that pitch and England had they batted better in their first inning should probably have had something along similar lines.Originally Posted by age_master
I think in general England, SA and even India, SL and NZ are producing far better test match wickets at the moment. Only the WI and Pak producing anything near the same standard as Australia.
Totally agree with you there mate. High scores, but takes forever getting there=Originally Posted by PhoenixFire

Nothing worse in Test cricket. Except maybe a sticky wicket, but thats more of a personal hygiene issue really.
Melbourne's a lottery these days, don't know what you're going to get. Melb and Syd will both be "result" pitches, IMO. Doesn't necessarily mean they'll be good, of course...
Australia showed it's possible to BAT and BOWL on the wicket.
