Exaxtly this is what overseas condition is all about or we have to see the same lame picthes there should be help for bowlers in the pitch
Cricket is already a batting friendly game and requires a little balance with the help with the pitch

Does australia have some option to make pitch being there home ground or is it made on icc request ?

yaar har taraf yeh hi horaha hay. jab aik country dosri country main match khelnay jati hay tu wo pitches ko apnay mutabiq tayar kar letay hain.
india do this when overseas team visit their country so now Aussies,England,even pakistan in UAE is doing the same. so what is happening now is that home team ready pitches so that visiting team can't do much and this is going to happen in this WC. and thats why in WC2011 WC the semifinalists were IND,SL,PK.

So there is no involvement of icc in this regards about preparing neutral pitches on worldcup venue

What surprised me is australian pitches are known for fast and bouncy

England getting raped looks too shaky hatrick chance for Marsh

yeah this needs to be fixed ICC is going to make changes in WC format in future and hopefully we will see 8-10 teams WC in the future but IMO instead of limiting the Number of teams they should consider for neutral venues all across the world. because now a day even for matches between big teams we already knew the winners we know Aussies/NZ will top the group and will easily crush through semi finals so WC is no more WC its too predictable to pick a winner these days.anyway our group is much better with no home team in our side and we can still enjoy some matches and can expect some good matches

the perfect solution for this problem should be "PORTABLE PITCHES"

Yes that it should be like being worldcup should have multiple venues around the globe but this means it will be expensive tour for icc to afford

We all need to appreciate that at the end of the day two teams get an equal opportunity to bat and bowl on a given pitch. It's a case of survival of the fittest. If a team gets comprehensively beaten by another, it simply deserves such treatment.

India has spent a good part of this year down under and still finds it tough to fully get used to the conditions; that's totally their own weakness and not something, say, unjust.

Personally, I agree with you on the point that there's a need for pitches to be evenly balanced in terms of the support they offer to batting and bowling. It's fair to offer hosts the advantage of having a say in this but it shouldn't be at the detriment of the sport.

Pak vs India
Big match tomorrow, we have lots of hopes and wishes.

This is a very important encounter in worldcup for both teams. Winner would probably certain for next stage.

Modi called NAWAZ to loose the match one again

That might just count to the favour of Paksitan team. Low-key probably equals lesser amount of pressure and more room for an inexperienced side to perform. You never know how their minds work.

Let's see what's gonna happen tomorrow. Because it's arch-rival's clash. News from the center is that Shahzad and Younis gonna open the innings tomorrow.

MATCH 3 SA VS ZIM at 0600PKT:
SA will win this match easily but ZIM can fight both teams know each other very well and have played alot of matches between them and specially after winning Warmup match against SL Zimbabwe's team is confident.
MATCH 4 PK VS IND at 0830PKT:
Well i don't want to say much about this match but on the paper indian team is favorite and have experienced batsmen in their site but Pakistan can win any match at any time against any team so don't giveup guys. as they said "Wherever you see there is a match winner wherever you see there is a match loser"
India have some advantages over pakistani team specially what everybody is taking about is "PAKISTAN have never won a game against india in WC" and i think this jinx should end now.
my bets are on younis and sohaib and obviously every pakistani is also looking towards "AFRIDI" to win us a match against india once again.
anyway only 12 hours left so wait guys wait and lets see what happen

Most confusing thing would be the team selection tomorrow.Who will make it to the playing eleven out of Nasir,Younis,Sarfaraz,Harris,Sohaib and Sohail Khan.

so guys according to you people, what should be the playing 11?

afridi gonna deliver the magic. Inshallah.

I am only expecting a single change, sarfraz out and Nasir jamshed in.

Plus there are rumors that younis might open innings and i think thats a good thing!

I was excited for Yasir Shah inclusion, but Indian batsman feel comfortable against spin, so that may rule him out of playing eleven.

Haris Sohail might prove a good allround asset.
