Australia’s stand-in skipper Steve Smith believes that the pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad may be the “flattest day one track”, as compared to the previous three surfaces of Nagpur, Delhi, and Indore. The two sides will lock horns in the final Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy on March 9, Thursday.
“Looks like probably of the four wickets we’ve seen so far, potentially the flattest on day one,” Smith told the media ahead of the Ahmedabad Test.
This wicket may be a little bit different: Smith
“It’s just playing what’s in front of us really, obviously the scores haven’t been big throughout this whole series. India scored 400 In that first Test match and Rohit got 100 and 400 proved to be way too many. This wicket may be a little bit different. I just had a look at it then. Perhaps it may not spin as much from the first ball or the first day but I do think it will spin as the game goes on. So yeah, there might be opportunities for bigger totals on this wicket,” Smith opined while speaking about the Ahmedabad pitch.
