Ind vs Aus ODI series 2017: Indore suitable for wrist spinners
Posted September 23rd, 2017, 12:42 PM IST
The Madhya Pradesh CA curator Chahhan said the pitch won’t crumble, so only wrist spinners will be able to make impact while a bigger total can be expected after 281 and 252 scored by the home team in Chennai and Kolkata respectively.
“We have used black cotton soil, brought from different parts of Madhya Pradesh. In this weather, it won’t crumble and it won’t be very dry. It has capacity to hold water but it will be good for the wrist spinners,” Chauhan said.
The Australian batsmen have struggled against both chinaman Yadav and Chahal in the first few matches with the former becoming only the third Indian take a hat-trick in ODIs.
Wrist spinners are not dependant on pitch for good performance like off-spinners but if they get bounce they become more lethal.
“We had used this pitch for a two-day match between the players of our Ranji players. Ninety overs were bowled on both days on September 7 & 8 and good runs were scored. It should be a high scoring game,” Chauhan added.
Holkar stadium has been a happy hunting ground for Indian batsmen as Virender Sehwag had struck his career-best ODI score of 219 against the West Indies in December 2011.
India captain Virat Kohli had hit a double hundred (211) against New Zealand in the first innings of the third Test last year and Ajinkya Rahane had scored 188 in the same innings.
Before the start of the series, it was said that 300-plus score would be norm but in the first two matches have not seen that happening. The city has also been experiencing rain in the last few days. There is forecast of sporadic showers during the next two days. The ground was kept under cover after heavy downpour.
