Kotla pitch unfit for international matches, says Harbhajan

Kotla pitch unfit for international matches, says Harbhajan


JALANDHAR, Dec 30: Endorsing his India teammate Gautam Gambhir’s view that the Ferozeshah Kotla pitch was not suitable for international matches, off-spinner Harbhajan Singh on Wednesday said practice games should have been held on the wicket before the One-dayer against Sri Lanka.

Asked his comments on the pitch fiasco which led to the abandonment of the India-Sri Lanka fifth ODI on Sunday, Harbhajan said there was something wrong with the Kotla surface and it could have been dangerous for even Indian players if the home side had batted first.
