Potentially the flattest on day one: Steve Smith

AHMEDABAD : Australian captain Steve Smith said the pitch for the fourth and final Test match at the Narendra Modi Stadium potentially looks to be the 'flattest day one track' as compared to the previous three pitches where the ball spun from the word go.

"Looks like probably of the four wickets we've seen so far, potentially the flattest on day one," Smith told reporters on the eve of the Test match, on Wednesday.

However, Smith expects that dry heat will ensure that the pitch cracks up as the game progresses, providing turn.

"Having said that, it's I think 38 degrees out there at the moment, it's pretty hot. Looks like it will dry out as the day goes on. One of the groundsmen said they might be watering it again today.

"So yeah, we will wait and see but in terms of the day before, it certainly looks like it's likely to do less on day one than we have seen so far," Smith added. Agencies
