For fools on this message board who are saying that we will loose in Australia by shaving off grass and preventing a loss here dont have a clue what they are talking about.There is a reason they call them "home" matches.Not to prepare a wicket which gives better advantage to the opposition than the home team.Morever we are missing our key pace bowlers.If we lose in Australia it will only be one series.Just because we leave grass here and lose a home series to pakistan will not automatically make us victors in australia.
The time to learn batting against pacers is in domestic cricket not by losing home matches to our arch rivals.
Even australia cannot play spin bowlers.They are not going to make turning tracks against Sri lanka just so that they can better prepare for a Indian series later.
