Breed on the pitch

So we made our best attempt according to the circumstances, but we have to talk to them (curator). We are confident that he will do his work well.

The pitch was challenging

Dinesh Karthik said, ‘Therefore, there was definitely no such pitch that the batsmen are getting special help. This was a challenging pitch. So far, in both the matches played here, we have got the same pitch. Karthik said that in T20 cricket, long shots and fours and sixes matter a lot and all stakeholders want so.

People want to see fours and sixes

Dinesh Karthik said, ‘The nature of T20 cricket is such that the more run the run will benefit and the fans will also be happy. They all want to see fours and sixes. For what we can do, we will make best efforts on our behalf.

It is also difficult to rotate strike on Chinnaswamy’s pitch

Former India wicketkeeper batsman said that they do not try to follow a particular pattern in the match, but due to pitches like Chinnaswamy, it is also difficult for the batsmen to rotate a strike. He said, ‘On every pitch we will try to understand what is the right way to play on it. I do not think we have prepared a special blueprint for this. It is important to understand the pitch and keep pace with it.

Playing big shots is not easy

Dinesh Karthik said, ‘But it becomes difficult to rotate a strike on such a pitch and it is not easy to play big shots, but finally it is T20. You have to play some shots and your wicket can also go in this process.
