Oh right so because England were all out for 50odd in the West Indies it means their pitches are seam bowler paradises.

Any more bull****?

No more like, since England could manage 400+ in a single day for 6 against Australia in England, the pitches are roads over there.. 8-)

It's as if subcontinental batsmen playing in the subcontinent are somehow used to the conditions and find it easier...

It's as if pitches in India and Sri Lanka are generally much better to bat on than the rest of the world. Oh wait no it's because their batsmen just all happen to be 10-15 runs per innings better than everywhere else.

Funny then, that India's top batsmen are as good away from the subcontinent as they are inside it.

Funny as well that most Australian batsmen of the last decade average far higher at home than away. Is that because pitches in Australia are flat batting paradises, or because Australian batsmen are simply more used to batting in Australian conditions?

English and Australian pitches tend to be good for pace bowlers while also providing something for spinners. Warne always enjoyed the added bounce he got for his leggies in Australia. Sub continental pitches tend to be good for spinners but provide NOTHING for quickies.

Sehwag if you actually ton up tomorrow and win me money I will forever love you! Please do it.

Also, this is a blatant case of Sri Lanka preparing flat tracks to defend their 1-0 lead :ph34r:
