Message: [QUOTE="Fitzy, post: 3462346, member: 9881"] They really don’t. I think they were spot on with making it a bowler friendly pitch game 1 of the series to not allow SA batsmen into any form of confidence so the explaining falls completely on the ground staff at the GABBA who took bowling friendly to a new interpretation. You also have to remember the Gabba staff don’t bowl 130+ clicks they can’t go testing how the pitch is playing they can only do there simple tests and by that point there’s not much you can do anyway. Shit happens. You also have to remember that both teams batted very poorly regardless of the pitch. Also the ball never got past 50 overs old. So every batter had to go out there with bowlers firing on a bowler friendly pitch with a fairly new ball. Shit happens and at the end of the day I would rather 2 days of what we just watched than 4 or 5 days with 1200 runs and a team winning by 250+ runs comfortably. Great weekend of cricket if you ask me. Australia are 1-0 up and have 3 days off of cricket with so much important cricket in the coming 8-9 months. [/QUOTE]
