Ahead of the first unofficial Test against against Australia A in Chennai, India A coach Rahul Dravid called for quick, bouncy tracks to challenge the batsmen but instead, the first match served up a slow, low pitch. The track on the first day of the second game was livelier and the first ball of the day summed it up as Gurinder Sandhu extracted excellent carry to Matthew Wade. The challenge was on.
The opportunity beckoned and it was the visitors who grabbed it, bowling India A out for 135 in 68.5 overs. The left-arm spinners, Steve O'Keefe and Ashton Agar dismantled the top and middle order, claiming combined figures of 29-8-53-4 before Sandhu made light work of the tail in a spell that read 7.5-2-15-3.

Well good to see the bowlers getting in on the action for once. Full time now cricket stop making the game all about batsmen and making bowlers get discouraged.

Your beloved T20 cricket is what has turned the game into a farce that is all about the batsman. Watch some real Test cricket and you will see that there is plenty of give and take between batsman and bowlers. Bowlers still dominate in Test cricket, the purest form of the game.

Second that.No one likes a flurry of wickets in a short period of the game.I mean all they need is how much a team can post and will the other team chase or not.
Its like a movie where at the end we find out who wins.
