India captain calls for review of cricket pitch ratings after S. Africa tie
The Straits Times
|January 05, 2024
There should be a review of how cricket pitches are rated with India receiving undue criticism, according to Test captain Rohit Sharma, in the wake of his side's seven-wicket win over hosts South Africa on a seaming surface with variable bounce at Newlands.
-
India bounced back from an innings defeat in the first Test in Centurion to share the two-match series, chasing down a target of 79 an hour after lunch despite a stunning century by home batsman Aiden Markram.
It was the shortest Test match in history in terms of balls bowled 642 or 107 overs - to end in an outright result. The previous shortest Test also involved South Africa, who were beaten by Australia in 656 balls in Melbourne in 1932.
