Don't understand all these talks about the pitch. Both teams have to bat on it so what's the problem?
Because they prepared it that way, assuming we couldn't play spin (or bowl spin), and it spectacularly backfired on Kohli.
Kohli had 100% say in the pitch preparation imo, and now he's the cricket worlds biggest LOL.

I don't mind when test match pitches are more 'testing'. Modern day batsmen are crybabies.

100% agree with you

However, the pitch was still outside of what the ICC considers a good pitch, and this isn't the first time India has been reprimanded for doing so.

I have some sympathy for Tigers fans, having immigrant parents who didn't know shit about footy, meant that it wasn't until I started school that footy, and who we supported became an issue. We lived in the Hawthorn area so I chose Hawthorn, my brother liked tigers so he chose Richmond. This was 1979.

Ur poor brother. He started following them in 79, they won in 80, he must have thought how goods this!!! Haven't won 1 since......
 
Missed the first innings demolition of India due to Richmond's practice match.
Wowee,Handscomb's catching,amazing.
Also Wade made a stumping.

Wade really had a great test as keeper.

Not bagging him again about being a poor keeper at spin.

Take into account that bat also beat the bat, brilliant stumping.
You could tell he was sensing Jayant was creeping forward though
