2nd Test: Rohit Sharma Urges Match Referees To 'keep Eyes And Ears Open' While Rating Pitches
Cape Town Test: After India beat South Africa by seven wickets to win the Cape Town Test inside two days on a pitch that was hugely favouring the fast bowlers, captain Rohit Sharma has urged the match referees appointed by the International Cricket Council (ICC) to keep their eyes and ears open when they are going to rate the pitches.
"We saw what happened in this match, how the pitch played and stuff like that. I honestly don't mind playing on pitches like this. As long as everyone keeps their mouth shut in India and don't talk too much about Indian pitches, honestly. Because you come here, it is dangerous. It is challenging.”
“So, and when people come to India, it is again pretty challenging as well. Look, when you are here to play Test cricket, we talk about Test cricket, the ultimate prize, Test cricket being the pinnacle and stuff like that. I think it's important that we also stand by it.”
