Looking at the conditions in Nagpur, Indian captain Rohit Sharma also wanted to bat first but the way the bowlers got off to a great start.
ruckus on the pitch
Before the match, there was a lot of hue and cry about the pitch of the Nagpur Test. Regarding this pitch, it was said from Australia that India prepared the pitch according to its own. This will be especially helpful for spin bowlers. On this, the captain of the Indian team clearly said that you will have to play on whatever pitch you get. There is nothing wrong with the pitch.
At the same time, former Australian cricketer Simon O’Donnell even complained to the ICC that he should intervene in the pitch matter.
