Perth pitch was by no means 'average': Sachin criticises ICC
After the ICC rated the pitch used for the second Australia-India Test at Perth as 'average', Sachin Tendulkar criticised the governing body, saying "the pitch was by no means average". Suggesting that skills of batsmen and bowlers were truly tested in the Perth Test, Sachin added that such pitches should be frequently provided to "revive Test cricket and generate excitement".
