India Vs Australia Test Series: Media Buzz
The pitch in Nagpur would be a clear threat to left-handers as the weather is often dry and hot. Indian Express, quoted n expert curator, said, “These spots would be generally hard to spot by visiting teams. Because what happens is, the top layer is usually rough, and the bottom layer will be hard. It is basically a trap, which many visiting teams fall for. The centre of the pitch will be watered, but the amount will be gradually brought down. Some of us use garden showers just to ensure the pitch gets only the right amount of water. Closer to the game, the grass will be culled. The top layer will expand when it absorbs water, and it will get loose.”
