No. As usual, you penchant for drawing the specific into a generalisation takes over.
IMO that was a bad pitch because it wasn't capable, no matter who was playing on it, of lasting even close to 5 days. It wasn't a bad pitch because it turned, or because it broke up over time. It was a bad pitch because it fell to pieces inside the first session and was not one which a five day game was capable of being played on.
Of course, if you want to make this an "Us v Them" thing even on the issue of pitches mate, then go ahead. But please bare this in mind. The reason the paragraph you highlighted in the original article is wrong is because neither team coped well with that pitch, as it was impossible to cope with. Australia lost that match by about 10-15 runs IIRC, in circumstances where neither side scored anything substantial on what was a **** house pitch. I mean Michael Clarke took 6 for 9 FFS.
Hypothetically, if India pile on 350-450 on a pitch, and Australia get bundled out for 150-200 on a turner, that doesn't make it a bad wicket, it means they couldn't cope with it. But that Mumbai pitch was a shocker, and most everyone agreed with that assessment of it. Even Imran was moved to write what a terrible pitch it was. Why? Not because it turned, not because one team or the other got beaten, but because it was a **** wicket.
So no, because a pitch turns on day one doesn't make it a bad wicket IMO, despite your best efforts to make it seem that's what I'm saying. Just like a pitch bouncing and seaming doesn't make it a bad wicket. But, and being the thread starter you really should know this, the question was "What's a good pitch?" not "Boo Hoo, the bad old Aussies are whinging coz a wicket turned, isn't that crap?" To which, in fairness, the answer would probably be "yes".
And finally, it will probably come as a shock to the people who prepared the SCG pitches in the 80s that they'd deliberately made them into turners to disadvantage the WI. The SCG always turned in the 80s, no matter who played there. And of course, the same people who presumably gave the order to the groundsman to bring the mighty Windies undone by prearing such a pitch also scheduled the first two tests of each summer back then at Brisbane and Perth, thus ensuring we were 2-0 down after a combined 18 sessions of cricket. How nefarious!!!
