Thats what u call a team who always want to use home advantage . But when was the last time India really won on a home advantage? Dont consider South africa. Even they beat us in 2000 when we prepared turners and won their 1st series in india. Well if india thinks, they wanna prepare turners, they better be aware of Yousuf and Afridi. They can stun any bowling lineups. I hope India starts playing cricket and not such filthy politics

game is a heck lot more entertaining on faster pictches and that is the usual standrd of playing... faster pictches allow for good calibre batsmen to play good strokes if they can negotiate the little bounce... The game is a lot more fluent and entertaining

tu yeh soch kar itna khush kyon ho raha hai be? are you a jyotishi? ya phir australians tere baap lagtey hain?? and why should all be matches played on 'fast bouncy grass tops'? because some teams are more comfortable on that? why not play in India on pitches which India is more comfortable on? why not aussies prepare slow low turners once in a while?? and we are not playing Pakistan just to prepare for aussies... we should play to win the current series ...and for that, if we get some advantage for being the host country, whats wrong? are we extended favourible conditions when we tour?? and anyways.....learning to play on difficult pitches should happen on domestic level, not in internationals where winning is needed more
