Ravi Shastri has urged India to build turning tracks for the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, stating that he “wants the ball to turn from Day 1.”

What kind of pitch do you think would be best for the forthcoming Test series? asks Ravi Shastri.

The wickets that will be used in the four-match Test series between India and Australia have been the subject of much speculation. Ravi Shastri, a former head coach for India, has spoken in on the topic, expressing his preference for certain types of pitches to be used in the next Test series.

The Border-Gavaskar Trophy match between India and Australia will begin on February 9 in Nagpur. Notably, India would like to add another series triumph against Australia on their home stadium, as they have won the previous three iterations of the series.

From the very first day, I want things to start moving! So what if you lose the coin toss? You’re hoping to see the ball spin somewhat. And perhaps there was Day 1’s offering for the bowlers. That’s where your power lies. You’re having a home game. Benefit from it. According to what Ravi Shastri revealed to Star Sports.

You hear a lot of nonsense about pitches, and it’s not all bad. When it comes to the production of wickets, I think only the curator should have input. I don’t think the players, the manager, the coach, or anybody else should have a say in this. You only need to make a convincing case. He continued, “Surely a curator has been a player and wants to make a decent pitch.

An India-Australia series generates unparalleled excitement: Ravi Shastri

The former Indian cricketer responded, “No question,” when asked if India’s rivalry with Australia was one of the sport’s most heated. That cricket you see on the field is only part of the story. The excitement surrounding a cricket series between India and Australia is unparalleled. In terms of teams, India is one of the few that have given Australia a true run for their money. This is what has sparked widespread interest in the show.

Indian players get a lot of the credit for that success. Australia has long been known for a specific style of play and the ability to completely dismantle opponents. The fact that India was able to compete on their own turf is a testament to the improvement of Indian athletes over the past few years, Shastri said.
