Ranji Trophy final pitch gives befitting reply to Australia, we don’t play only on spin track

Pitch Variation in Cricket: In the world of international cricket, for the last few days, pitch is being discussed more than the cricket game. These discussions have been started by Australia, which is currently on a tour of India. A 4-match Test series is going on between India and Australia for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The first match of this series was held in Nagpur, which India won easily. Former Australian cricketers, media and fans have raised many questions on the Nagpur pitch.

Actually, he says that India made a spin-friendly pitch in Nagpur according to its own, due to which a fair match could not be held. However, it is a different matter that on the pitch on which the Australian team was all out for just 91 runs in less than 2 hours, the Indian team also scored 400 runs on the same pitch. Regarding the Nagpur pitch, Australian media said that India has made a lot of turning track, on which the bounce is also very less. This is not a good pitch. Australia has now got a befitting reply through India’s Ranji pitch.

Green pitch made for Ranji final

At present, the final match of Ranji Trophy 2022-23 is going on in India, in which the teams of Bengal and Saurashtra are face to face. A lot of grass has been left on the pitch on which this final match of Ranji Trophy is being played, as it is left on Australian pitches. Domestic cricketers of India are playing cricket on pitches with such swing and bounce so that they can play easily on pitches like Australia, England, South Africa and New Zealand.

Indian cricket had long realized that Indian cricketers are not able to play good cricket on the pitches of Army (SENA) i.e. South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australia. Because of this, the Indian cricket team started preparing pitches like army countries in India itself. After practicing on these pitches, young cricketers of India now go to all these countries and perform well in front of their conditions and their bowlers.

India never discussed the pitch

Such a change had started appearing in Virat Kohli’s Test team. This is the reason why India has defeated Australia not once but twice in a row on their own home pitches and conditions. The first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2020-21 was played in Adelaide, in which India’s team was able to score only 36 runs in the second innings, which is the lowest score in India’s Test history, but then no Indian player and media Did not say that Australia did not make a fair pitch.

India made a strong comeback in the second Test match played in Melbourne and defeated the hosts not by one or two but by 8 wickets. After that the Australian team could neither win in Sydney nor in Brisbane. In Brisbane, Australia had not lost a single Test match in the last 32 years, they had excellent bowlers like Jos Hazlewood, Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Cameron Green and Nathan Lyon, and many of India’s main players were injured, India’s The bowling line-up was absolutely inexperienced, but still India won the Australia a little bit of pride in Gabba and not only won that match but also the series.

Playing on different pitches is the mantra of India’s success

India has not won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy twice in a row by going to Australia. The reason for this is the variety of pitches available to the cricketers in Indian domestic cricket. India’s domestic cricketers practice on spin tracks as well as on swing and bouncy pitches. This is the reason why batsmen like Shubman Gill, Prithvi Shaw and Ishaan Kishan play cricket easily even after going abroad.

A sample of this is being seen by the Australian team in the final match of Ranji Trophy. In this match also the players have been given a grassy pitch, the Bengal team had lost 3 wickets for just 2 runs and 6 wickets for 50 runs. Saurashtra fast bowlers Jaydev Unadkat and Chetan Sakaria destroyed the Bengal team with their swing bowling. However, then with the help of half-centuries from Shahbaz Ahmed and wicketkeeper Abhishek Porel, the Bengal team was able to reach 174 runs. From this, Australia should understand that not only one type of pitch is made in India, but many types of pitches are made and this is the key to India’s success for so many years.
