pitch condition in perth
Perth’s pitch is known for its high bounce and pace, hence it is not easy for the umpires to take LBW decisions especially. A few days ago, pitch curator Isaac McDonald had told that there will be grass on the pitch for the first Test between India and Australia, seeing which it is not difficult to guess that the ball will come out fast after being hit. He also told that there has been less sunshine in Perth in the past few days, due to which the mood of the pitch may appear to have changed a bit. But it will not be easy to bat here in any situation.
