Exactly a week ago, in Bulls Ring, Wanderers, South Africa, the fifth and the deciding ODI between Australia and South Africa ended up becoming more than just a decider for the series. It went down as one of the best ODI in Cricketing history. Setting an himalayan target of 434 for South Africa, and then SA romping home was one of the most spectacular thing to watch.
But today, there was another ODI happening thousand miles away from Bull Ring, in the sub-continent between Srilanka and Pakistan. Pakistan restricted Srilanka to 130 and set themselves an easy target. But it became a very closely contested contest and eventually Pakistan won by 4 wickets.
Two different versions of ODI, one entertaining every moment and the other deathly boring. Why is there such variations in preparing the tracks? Should the Cricket Governing body enforce certain code of conduct for the ground conditions in the future???

You know my knowledge of Cricket..but then, can you blame the entire course of match on just the pitch????
The whole Indians were pleased with the result of the match. Australia is a team which is to be suffered. Hats of to Smith who lead the team with good start and courage to win the match.
