We can't make bouncy pitch like Aus, SA all of sudden. In fact, our soil and weather is not suitable for such pitch. What I want is some 'pace' in the pitch. Ball should come to bat quicker than what we have seen in this match. Bowlers don't get any purchase from this pitch, not even spinner. Batsmen get so much time to adjust batting, if you bowl good length ball, batmen will hit through the wicket, if you bowl half pitch, the ball will disappear in the stands, only option then is to bowl fuller length then again you are asking for trouble. In this kind of low and slow pitch, bowlers best option to get wicket is to break batsmen's concentration and force him to make mistake.
