Harbhajan Singh On IND vs NZ: New Zealand wiped out Team India in the 3 test match series. In this way, the Indian team lost the Test series 3-0 for the first time on its home soil. Apart from this, India has lost the Test series on its home soil after almost 12 years. The clean sweep on home soil before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia is not a good sign for Team India. Questions are constantly being raised on the performance of the Indian team. Also, the future of Indian captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli is at stake. However, after the defeat against New Zealand, some fans are blaming the pitch. These fans believe that if the pitch was good then the Indian batsmen would definitely have performed well.
‘Batsmen of the older generation never faced this kind of pitch…’
On social media, a fan wrote on the flop show of Indian batsmen that in olden times batsmen used to play against spin giants Shane Warne and Muttiah Muralitharan… In response to which former Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh replied that the pitch for the third test Made, she was helpful to the spinners. Tests on this type of pitch last only for 2-3 days. Harbhajan Singh further writes that the older generation batsmen never played on such a pitch. Tests on this type of pitch do not last more than 2-3 days.
Imagine batters from the earlier generation played Murali, Warne, Saqlain on subcontinent tracks.

Earlier generations batsman’s never played on these kind of tracks. These tracks are prepared for 2/3 day test matches. You Don’t need Murli, Warne or Saqi on these pitches to get the teams out. Anyone can get anyone out https://t.co/xJynSAfDqS
