Flat pitches for next two tests please ....

... as we cant take this humilation anymore :-). Looks like Ganguly will
personally supervise the pitches for the next 2 tests.

170+ runs in something like 2 hours by Gilly/Hayden. Great stuff after being
99/5. If its flat tracks, we can atleast *hope* to see similar stuff from
indian batsmen also and Dravid and co can repair their averages a bit. 1-0
loss to Aussies would look better than 3-0.

Not too sure that's what you need.  When any of the other batsmen were
facing the spinners (except SRW for the most part), the ball looked all
but impossible to play.  What you need is a spinner who can bowl to
lefthanders.

Thats the sort of negative attitude the Indians have to overcome. Sure you
can have flat pitches, so what a meaningless and boring draw, and then you
wonder why you give embarassing performances away from India.
The team should be proactive and try and improve the way they play instead
of worrying about things that shouldn't concern them like pitches
