Behind Champions Trophy Rawalpindi pitch solidifies


Recently, a report on the YouTube channel of Cricbuzz.com, the most popular cricket destination in India, said that the Pakistan Cricket Board was ready to provide a helping hand by making arrangements for Team India to return home, to either Delhi or Chandigarh, after each Champions Trophy match in 2025, if the Men in Blue are not prepared to stay in Pakistan.

Three gas-fuelled patio heaters have been placed at each end of the cricket pitch to get the air as hot as possible. A giant fan behind each of them transmits the freshly baked air rumbling across the surface, and a complete windbreak has been placed at each end to prevent it from exiting and letting it be reheated and reclaimed.

It may be that for perhaps the first time under McCullum, belief slightly drained away during this Test, making way for a fatalistic view of the surface and that flurry of sweeps: ------Ali Martin.

Still, the pitch would be ideal for spin bowling after a few more days of roasting. Nevertheless, even after winning the toss and giving their respective spinners the finest pitch shapes and conditions, England and Pakistan could not afford to risk ruining everything. There won't be much more to say once each player has had a chance to perform. However, there will still be a chance to benefit from spin bowling for the time being.
