Former Indian cricket team captain Sourav Ganguly on Wednesday took to Twitter to slam the Wanderers wicket for the Johannesburg Test, terming the surface as ‘unfair’. The first day of the Test saw India being bowled out for 187, with South Africa ending the day at a score of 6/1. Following the day’s play, Sourav Ganguly said that batsmen have ‘minimum chance’ playing on the wicket, asking the International Cricket Council (ICC) to intervene on the matter. “..To play test cricket on this surface is unfair ...saw it in NZ in 2003 ...batsman have minimum chance ..icc should look into it (sic),” he tweeted. This is the final Test of the three-match series, with India having lost the series after losing the opening two Tests.
