Dravid disagrees with 'average' rating given to Ahmedabad and Chennai pitches

"When it spins a little bit or something happens that brings the bowlers into the game, and you start rating pitches as average, where does it leave the bowlers?"

Then they also complain about flat pitches in India

It hit me just now what the crowds in this tournament are missing.

A row of randomly selected people silently sipping slushies while a man points a machine gun at them just out of camera shot.

Oh yeah that was wild

I really like the fake Tea Drinkers in Pakistan. Clearly, don't even get a real cuppa, but have to pretend they're drinking it. Must be same machine gunner working that one too.

Dharamsala - beautiful ground. Day game means no insane fog. Pitch was interesting for a road. Great crowd.

But fmd I got nervous whenever a fielder dived in the outfield. Someone's going to get hurt. Really need to seriously fix that turf asap

Surely average should be....average? Meaning most pitches around the world should get average? Or is there grade inflation here?

No . All the roads have been assigned good ratings
Whereas Chennai and Ahmedabad which had assistance for bowlers have been rated average

Yeah the outfield is horrible. It's really bad. I think it was mainly the rain which did it in, so I think by March it'll hopefully be good to go.
