Why have the pitches been so flat throughout the India vs Aus. series, matches have mostly been meaningless slogging -.-

Entire series was a waste. The bowlers were spanked every game. Time for the ICC to stop India from doctoring pitches.

Doesn't look like he'll be getting a bat soon. Our openers are off to a great start, and doesn't seem as though they'll stop. Unless we take a 250+ lead and Dhoni decides to put SRT in at 3rd.

Wasn't it 115 he needs? Either way, he's going good, and if he manages to keep it up, the sky is the limit for the Little Master.
