don't agree. you can still make them fast atleast, forget about green top. Sri lanka used to have murali and they had those slow spin friendly pithes but after they got a decent all around attack the pitches are fast and bouncy. seam everything.

Premadasa stadium (where the last two ODI's were played) used to be the slowest pitch in the whole subcontinent. but after some construction they have a speedy bouncy pitch. did you watch the last two odi's? and did you see the movement?
