[QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3462309, member: 9052"] It think the pitch today would be fine as a day 1 pitch, so the curators look to be out by a day. I don't like a pitch where days 1 & 2 are the best to bat, then it breaks up and becomes a nightmare for days 4 & 5... or doesn't do anything even on day 5. On those pitches whoever wins the toss is the only team that can win, because they have a clean runway to bat for 2 days get 500 on the board and the other team is fighting for a draw from day 3 onwards. Last year I think the Gabba was spicy on day 1, then flattened out for 2 & 3, becoming more difficult for 4 & 5. From memory it was just as green on day 1, but ended up being ok by the end of day 1. It's up to the batting teams to weather the storm initially and get through it. Australia still made 200 in their first innings and 250-300 should be around the score matches need for teams batting first Big issue with this test is that both bowling attacks are elite, and one of the team's batting line up is maybe their worst ever.
