“Reverse swing at Kotla”, Dec 29, was a wonderfully argued piece. At a time when everyone is criticising the Delhi and Districts Cricket Association (DDCA) for producing an unplayable pitch, you have put things in perspective.
The game has, as you say, become one where the bowler is the punching bag. In the event, the game has become like baseball, where the strength of the batsman has become all important. In such a situation, a pitch like Kotla creates uncertainty in the minds of the batsmen and livens up the game. Kudos to you.
