The Perth wicket for the second Test of the ongoing India’s tour of Australia has received a lot of opinions in the recent times. The surprising part about the same is that while some people have spoken in support of such pitches, the others have said of the otherwise.
It all started after ICC’s report regarding the Perth wicket saw it being rated as ‘average’.
A wicket which had witnessed an engrossing battle between the bat and ball for five days being rated as average seemed to have not gone well with former Australia fast bowler Mitchell Johnson, who was involved in an elongated argument with former India opening batsman Aakash Chopra regarding the same.
Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar also took to his Twitter account to share his opinion regarding the same. Tendulkar called for more of such pitches for Test matches, saying that it was by no means ‘average’.
Tendulkar’s comments went well with Johnson and former England captain Michael Vaughan, both of whom retweeted Tendulkar’s tweet saying that they agree with the legendary cricketer’s views.
